STUDENT INFORMATION EVENT
WALL STREETERS ON ST. GEORGE STREET
Monday, February 26th, 2018 • 1:30-3:30 pm • Kruger Hall, Woodsworth College, 119 St. George Street

The Economics Department (STG) invites you to an open panel discussion with two career bankers from Wall Street: Justin Peagram (Barclays) and Sherry Xu (Credit Agricole).

This is a valuable opportunity for students interested in "finance" to have a candid conversation and network with bankers/recruiters to learn about corporate and investment banking and gather career advice (including academic preparation, extra-curricular activities, requisite hard & soft skills, and the "glass ceiling"). Students interested in internship opportunities in Canada and NYC should bring a one-page resume and (if possible) a business card.
