How do you answer the “what do you do” question?
Assuming the person asking the question is not in the business / finance world, what would you say? Do you still sayPE, or just finance, investor, etc.? Always felt like saying "investor" is a little full of it when you're just a lowlyPEassociate.
Whenever I've saidPEto someone who isnt clued in to high finance at all, its almost always followed by a blank stare and an "oh okay" (i dont actually know what that means but i'll just go with it) or a "huh?" so i end ho having to give a brief overview of what it actually means almost every time.
我也想只是说“财务”正在播放它。我不是为了神而来的一些公司无人机豆柜台。我为自己的工作感到自豪,我希望人们知道这一点而不必然会轻描淡写。

You're clearly craving some recognition (nothing wrong with that) so just say investor.
I personally say private equity or finance, but I also don't care whether or not people realize what it is. Not trying to impress anyone.
I just say finance. How is it "down playing" it? You are a corporate drone bean counter. You're not a founder or CEO or anything
如果您为自己的工作感到自豪,对您有好处,但是您真的不会通过告诉他们的工作来打动金融外的人
Exactly lol most people just ask what you do for a living to make small talk anyways.
You don't want to play into the stereotype of being a finance douchebag
One of my mentors at a hedge fund job once brought this up to me and said that as he got older, he wanted to be less and less associated with "high finance" went from saying he works at a hedge fund, to just finance to now saying he works in the industry he covers.
这是为什么?
如果与一个非筹集的人交谈,我只是说“”PowerPoint, phone, and spreadsheet desk job". That is descriptive enough that someone will know exactly what we spend all day doing. If they want to know more, they will ask.

有些量身定制,因为大多数人不在乎。
对于金融中的人们,我说私人公平。对于大公司的人们来说,我说我在一家投资公司工作。如果我不知道他们做什么,我只会说财务,并且取决于氛围,可能会抛出“长时间,很多电子表格,有趣的东西”之类的东西。如果这就像来自Uber司机或我旁边的某人的传递评论,我只是说我的覆盖范围(例如“我在医疗保健工作,但在数字方面,而不是硬东西”))
“我从事金融工作”
"I work in fuh-NANCE"
Assuming this isn't an interview situation for a non-finance oriented org, why does it matter? Just say you work in finance and if people want to dig deeper then let them. No point wasting thought on such menial things.
上帝真是个失败者。
您在金融工作,您不是士兵,医生或警察。
克服自己。
When someone asks me I just say that I am an angel doing God's work.

If you want recognition, which is totally reasonable, your money should be more than enough to do it. That's the language real people (non prestige whore undergrads) speak
Why is this so hard to answer?

“快速开车吃屁股”
Sure, I drive a camry, but put that thing in sport and it zooms. And yes, second part is true as well
In today's environment just tell people you work at a bank.
1) Most people are too stupid to understand anyway.
2)您可能会受到一些不了解的白痴的打击。
