If I barely know you and you tell me that you drive a Maserati, automatically I'll make inferences based on what I know about other Maserati owners. That's because the human mind has a tendancy to categorize and fill in missing information. To give an analogy (and I mean no malice in this), if you tell me that you're a Malay, i'll automatically assume that you're a Muslim. It's just human tendacy to categorize.

I see. Maybe you're right. I tend to link cars like Civic and Nissan GTR to the typical ahbengs. If an ahbeng drives a Maserati then quite atas ah, good on them

analyst is a rank in most banks (even for local banks) - stated in contract 1. just like how trainee is also a “rank”, so just put ur title as per ur contract, dont cringe pls.

trainee > if convert > analyst (fresh grads typically start with this title regardless of div) > assoc > vp > dir

If you don’t know the rank just stfu. Those in GTP, they start out from trainee and they are called graduate trainee. Not all started from analyst.

anw ubs is the special one, most foreign banks go by analyst > assoc > etc. case in point - those in ib and S&T (those legit 1 la, not like yall so diulian) have linkedin profiles of IB ANALYST and S&T ANALYST. caps to accentuate the irony for u, dont need thank me

Haha, no worries. You're probably right in differentiating Maserati drivers as atas Ah Bengs haha. Think of them as those guys who own handphone shops, car garages or their own bosses, they're not really those working-class ah bengs that you have mentioned about.

Again, nothing wrong with owning a Maserati but you won't find finance guys driving one. Can just go to MBFC, Asia Square carparks and see for yourself. They're usually higher-end continental cars or Porsches and Bentleys.

I can only assume that you are from the program. TS is obviously trying to point out that its fine to put Analyst regardless of your function as opposed to a SGUT claiming to be from IB/Markets/WM. ‘Most banks’ (in his/her words) do actually go by analyst > associate > vp… Hence, people with the analyst title are not misleading others / inflating their titles, its just not the same comparison. You dont see people bitching about those with Associate Director / Specialist titles (since you seem to understand only in UBS context) right? Ethical a bit; put UBS SUPER if you really damn embarrassed by the trainee title lor.

Obviously people won’t bitxh about Associate Director / Specialist titles because they are not easy to fake? You typed so long and you’re not making sense. Faster go do your data entry SUPER trainee
