My interviewer was 22 years old

I just wanted to share this unique story (but keeping details vague):


One of my interviewers at an EB was a VP in the M&A group who was 22 years old. To put this in context, she got her MBA two years ago. 
 

I stalked her on LinkedIn (she was already very attractive) and found the following:

-Accepted to Yale at age 13 

-Graduated in 3 years (16) while having 2 internships at, one at MBB and the other at a BB

-Accepted FT offer from MBB, worked for 2 years

-Went to a highly ranked MBA program, not quite M7 though (Think Tuck, Kenan-Flager, etc), graduated at 20. 

-Went to EB as post-MBA associate

-2 years later, interviewing me


Honestly one of the most impressive backgrounds I've seen, plus I know none of it was due to affirmative action/DEI because she was a blonde girl from Greenwich (might be nepotism though).

One of the more clever shit posts in reference to an older thread. Well done

 

Whoops didn't mean to add an "already" before very attractive, I don't know how to edit posts and I don't want to sound like a pedophile

 
Funniest

If she’s real (not), the only odd career move she’s made is going into IB. Someone that sharp would be bored out of her mind making pie charts and crunching weighted average calcs past midnight. Come back with a better one next time.

VP
 

Maybe she's obsessed with social prestige to make up for a lack of social interactions during childhood. Additionally, maybe she thought high finance was a good way to gain experience and legitimacy before strutting off to the ivory towers of politics or academia? (Since nobody is going take a 16 year old fresh grad seriously in politics unless youre Greta Thunberg)
