Re: The Official A-League Thread. BUZZING! Hopefully they'll show Sydney FC and Wanderers games rather than Wellington Phoenix or some other non-relevant side.

Indeed. Especially in your line of work which I assume is within financial services, competition would be extremely high amongst graduates to entry level positions. Many are deluded by the fact that it is the individual and what skills they are able to bring to the company that is considered...

Oh really? Lol can you explain further details?

Yeah I go to Macquarie out of choice. The actuarial program is the probably the best in the state. You also shouldn't defame UWS like that. You never know who or where your employer went to for their education.

Hmm yeah cause there are so many universities to choose from right?

It's not? :s

I call BS on that sentence. Unless the industry has been a traditionally 'old boy network' such as investment banks within Wall Street (e.g. Goldman Sachs who have a close affiliation to Ivy League colleges in particular Harvard grads), where employment is based on your graduate school. There...

LOL that's so true. I guess I meant more those who were raised overseas than studied? Though George St is now becoming more popular with Chinese international students due to its proximity to Chinatown. Also Park Chung Hee was a dictator but at least he was one of the few presidents who knew...

Wow you're pretty lucky you got a huge span of relatives across various regions! Mine are all bunched up in Seoul lol not very exciting indeed when visiting the country as pretty much everyone lives within a 30 min radius. My ancestors were from Jeonju. Real rural and scenic from what I heard...

It's really a one-of-a-kind experience huh? Haha being Korean has its positives as well as its downsides. It's about finding a balance between two cultures.

Lol how do you know about Korean culture and social norms so well? It's like you've lived in the country your whole life.

Do you not watch/read the news? Men have to now be highly cautious especially in the political or business environment when addressing women as seen in previous cases in Australia where female staff have made legal claims against their superiors for commenting on their attire as being 'too...

I think you mean this one ... I find it amazing and somewhat of a culture shock when in Korea when I see men on the street 'hunting' women and just approaching strangers and asking for their numbers. If that happened in Australia some might report it as sexual harassment. I heard from some...

Cherry pick samples to prove a generalisation LMAO then am I to take a census of tertiary educated graduates in Australia then? A sample is more than representative of a trend which is that a mix of good grades, experience in the field and a solid resume/cv can guarantee most graduates a...

Harvard. Seriously what type of stupid thread is this? I've known many seniors who've gone to universities in obscure places who have done well earning salaries on par with those who graduated from the more 'prestigious' well known universities in Australia. Attend Open Days, ask questions...

Dumbfoundead and Wax are the bomb!

Couple of days late but ... Failed ACCG100. Not because it was hard just couldn't be bothered and isn't a prerequisite unit for me next year. I can confidently say obtaining a credit in BBA102 is possible without reading the textbook or lecture slides for all of semester 1. All multiple guess...

And some more ... Lol

Maybe instead of this gangster rap maybe some more underground societal/conscious rap is needed in this thread? (No hate to previous posts i'm a huge fan of the old school scene too) I love rap songs that have brass instruments or that jazz band touch to it. :) And ... My favourite tune...
