Recruitment at Goldman Sachs
In a time when many companies are maintaining hiring freezes and still unsure of the 2010 economic outlook, Goldman Sachs is taking advantage of the swelling pool of unhired talent. Goldman Sachs is pushing ahead in the field hit hardest by the crisis and has launched an aggressive recruiting drive to build its asset management business. Most rivals are pulling back from fund management, but the bank plans to hire up to 200 staff across all regions. Formerly ranked 17th in asset management, this move is part of an attempt to establish a dominant position as one of the world’s leading asset managers. The Goldman Sachs asset management division started hiring three months ago.
