If I may ask

>specifically for tech jobs

Which kind of tech jobs? For banks, or something unrelated?

Startups (widely varied) or grad school. These were tech people who worked in various tech/quant roles.

I think sample size is 4 at GS, maybe 10 elsewhere.

Also several have said they'd apply to YC (they have money, but not startup industry connections, or at least not current ones). Remember, the deadline is March 28th...

I'm pretty sure that after working for Goldman, you don't go work for another large bank, you go work for the Goldman of another field. Otherwise it would be like going from MLB to a farm team -- not an upward move.

Rocket Internet has been hiring several Goldman bankers lately to be local or functional managing directors for their startups.
I left Goldman Sachs for Facebook - a few left for Google, and of course startups, etc.
