Someone's Actually Hiring Bankers
Worried about your future on Wall Street? Dreading every meeting with your boss for fear of landing a pink slip? Having second thoughts about having buried yourself in debt for that M.B.A.? Fear not.
A large and growing organization -- owner of the biggest bank in the world, by some measures -- is hiring. The United States Treasury wants you.
In staffing up the Troubled Asset Relief Program -- more popularly known as the $700 billion bailout of Wall Street -- the government is actively searching for financial types with relevant experience.
Specifically, the Treasury is looking for people with accounting and auction management skills, as well as people familiar with securities asset management and whole-loan asset management.
Don't dawdle, if you're interested. As the markets remind us painfully every day, time's a wastin'. The Treasury wants to hear from you by 5 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on Wednesday.
And, yes, Bill Gross, even you will have to fill out the civil service application if you're interested.
More information is available at the Treasury's website.
