From X To IB
Well along with a lot of other people I've had a tough time getting an IB offer. I've been through maybe 10-12 interviews, 4 final rounds, 0 offers. I am still actively trying to land something but I had a question and wanted everyones opinion. Let's say I end up with 0 offers from IB which of the following paths could I take and either lateral into IB, or go for an MBA and get an associate level job.
PWM
Financial Advisor
Asset Management
Financial Analyst
Tax Associate but also helping in tax for M&A
Thanks for your opinions!

Also if doing either of the above at a small firm still diminish your chances in IB after an MBA?

There are always a lot of people going from consulting to ibanking, and from ibanking to consulting. Maybe give some of the consulting firms a look, I am pretty sure the top shops are done hiring but maybe a place like Accenture or Deloitte are still looking for people.
