"Fit" - maybe it's not BS... or is it??
It's week 2 of my internship in IBD and I am getting pounded with work. I'm looking at this net debt, NOL, TSM, minority interest shit and I am so confused. At least I am in Consumer or else I don't think I will even care what a lumber company is even doing
Anyway I have been thinkign about my internship and about banking. Is one person cut out for S&T more than IBD? Is there really a "fit" or is this "fit" idea really bs for a "you're still great but over there" rejection?
My gut tells me I like markets more but then I also like investing and make decisions (buyside type work). and I hate getting up early in the morning.
If one is not better than the other why do some people chosse S&T vs IB or IB vs S&T? how do you know you are not capable of both?

A really bad "fit" would be as a writer.... or anyone that needs to use writing to convey ideas for that matter.

frankly i prefer to convey

Sorry I realize my thoughts
Sorry I realize my thoughts are all jumbled up. I was writing that last night dead tired, confused, and ready to go home.
Seriously, I'd love to hear your opinions. Is this "fit" idea legit? Obviously, everyone likes instant gratification and free time, but is one person really better suited for one division or another?
seriously though
will someone provide insight to this question... i'm in the same boat and i'm wondering what i should plan to do for full time.
no perfect job
I don't think you're truly cut out for one or the other in terms of "fit." You know the best from your experience whether or not you like it. I am sure plenty of people are capable of doing both, and it just depends on your specific personality and interests. I'd also bet plenty of people would enjoy both, while plenty of others would not.
I think there are only a select few people who choose a job/profession that they really enjoy and are truly passionate about. Coming out of college, there is still plenty of time to figure out something you enjoy. Get as much input you can from other people, but only you can make the best judgment of what you're cut out for in the end. If you don't like it in the end, it's not like you're stuck with it forever.
I would say though once you do make a final decision, do your best to make the most of it until your next step (new job, B-school, whatever). Don't regret it or 2nd guess it, even if you find out it's not something you like. You can always learn a lot wherever you're at, but regretting it will only stress you out.
IBD and S&T are polar
