The annual average salary for employees at major hedge funds in the US can vary widely depending on the specific role, level of experience, and location. However, here are some rough estimates of average annual salaries for a few key positions based on industry data:

You never know when an opportunity will come your way, which is why it is important to keep your resume up-to-date and ready-for-use at all times. In particular, though, it is important to have an impressive resume when you are applying to college or to a job.

Once you have completed your college essays and sent in your college applications, you sigh in relief that you are finished with the college process, but in some cases, you aren’t done yet! Some institutions require (or at least recommend) that its students be interviewed by an alumni or admissions officer. Sure, this may sound intimidating and scary, but if done correctly, a college interview can be a great way to humanize yourself and prove that you are more than just a number.

If you have begun the college application process, you have probably heard - and feared - the words “Common App” over and over again. But for those of you who haven’t already heard this about a million times, the Common Application is an undergraduate college admission application that 625 colleges across the United States use for their applications. This application requires a “Common App Supplement” that will be sent to every school to which you apply. The 2016-2017 essay prompts are as follows:

If you research the rankings of the top universities in the United States, you may notice that every source has slight variations.

This is America’s first university. This is the school that has produced more billionaire alumni than any other institution. This is Playboy Magazine’s 2014 choice for the top party school in the country. This is...the University of Pennsylvania.

However, there are several factors to consider when choosing a school, thereby rendering the college process a difficult one.

# Date and Time

College is a fun place to be in, but at times it can also be a bubble — in the sense that what (and where) you choose to study will determine who you will be surrounded by and, in turn, what sort of ideas and opinions that you will be exposed to most of the time. Reading is one good way to get out of that bubble: it reminds you that there is a wider world out with many more things to explore beyond what it is that you are studying. Yet, many students arguably do not read as widely as they should. If, for example, you chose to study something in the S.T.E.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) areas, chances are you'll go through your college life without encountering works of literature. The same applies to those pursuing degrees in humanities and social sciences; chances are you wouldn't make the effort to read books that explain in detail about important scientific discoveries and paradigm shifts in the past two centuries. For students who are more balanced and would like to expand their literary horizons before graduating, here are some books you should read before venturing out in the "real world."

College is, first and foremost, a place to learn more about the things that you are interested in, but it’s also a place to socialize. It’s where you make new friends and learn to expose yourself to other people, their values and beliefs, opinions, and (hopefully) common interests. As such, it’s also important to develop a set of skills that will make the process easier and more natural for you to connect with others. Some of these skills can be cultivated inside the classroom with fellow classmates and such, but others require a greater level of involvement beyond the classroom setting.
