Hey guys, I'm in quite a favourable situation and I thought I'd ask for some advice. Last summer I applied for a few consulting internships and unfortunately didn't get any, Deloitte however emailed a coupe of months ago inviting me to a 'Top Talent' event which in a nutshell consists of the best of a bad bunch of applicants. There was an assessment at the top talent event and if we passed we were then fast tracked to a final round interview for a graduate role.
I've since passed and now have the opportunity to apply for a graduate role in one of their service lines. Here's my confusion; ultimately I want to go into investment banking and I applied to Deloitte as a way of keeping my options open if I didn't get any IB offers, so it would be great to have this as a backup if this autumn's recruiting season does not go well. Which service line should I apply to which may help me transition in the future? (I know breaking in from any industry is difficult).
Within consulting I have the option of applying for finance or operations. Within corporate finance, I can only apply to roles outside London (where I live), these consist of restructuring services, valuation group, corporate finance advisory or transaction services. I am put off by the fact I would have to pursue a graduate role with a HOPE to move back to London if I pursue corp finance.
I'd really appreciate some advice monkeys, thanks!
Deloitte Strategy & Ops is prob the most prestigious group within Deloitte, but since you are aiming for ibanking, you might obtain more relevant experience within the valuation or corp fin advisory group.
Deloitte has three types of consulting: Strategy, MC, and Services / Technology. Unless it's strategy, don't consider consulting. Your best bet is with the Corp Finance roles, but it's unlikely you'll be able to transfer to a BB from any of those. My advice is to delay your decision as long as possible since you really don't want to start your career at a big 4 firm
Do Deloitte Strategy (Finance) go get your MBA and lateral into IB, if you want to do IBanking. But if youu're content with corporate finance, working with any of the top consulting firms (imo MBB, Monitor, Deloitte, OW, or Booz) in Finance has nice exit opps...especially OW from what I have heard.
