Interested as well.
Wells was who I was going to recommend
That's what I've heard from more than one friend who works in banking. They have a presence in NYC and Charlotte, right? Any big differences between the two regions in terms of the groups or how actively they recruit? From checking out LinkedIn it looks like more people are in Charlotte.
They have some sort of presence in all of the main financial centers in the country (NY, SF, Chi, LA, etc) but yes, the vast majority of their people are in Charlotte. I know some of the offices (SF & LA for sure) do their own recruiting. NY has a little of everything but most groups are very small (1-2 analysts for several of them).
Uhh I'm under the impression that everyone in Charlotte is just whoever transitioned over from Edgeview after the acquisition.
Minneapolis is the largest office by far, and after that is NYC. Every other office has a very "satellite" feel to it, SF in particular just has Consumer, TMT, and maybe biotech in terms of coverage groups. Then there's a small ECM desk (1 analyst, 1 MD, 1 principal) and an MD that covers sponsors. Chicago, Boston, and LA have like 1 or 2 MDs each with little to no junior support (each are focused on different things, I think LA is mostly public finance, Chicago is DCM, and Boston is Tech M&A).
Unless things changed, the offices don't do their own recruiting in the sense that everything is still coordinated through HR in Minneapolis. But the offices will interview you directly and you will go to the specific office for the superday.
edit: Not sure if you were replying to the PJC comment or not, but this is in regards to Piper as opposed to Wells.
Not to be a dick but FYI 3-3.5 gpa is a) not average and b) a rather large range. I think you would be well served by crafting and polishing a story that is air tight, and nonselectively targeting all firms that do on campus recruiting at your target school. Also be ready to spin why you aren't interning this summer.
Thanks for the feedback. I'm just trying to avoid getting into a ton of specific info given that the community can be relatively small. Never know who you'll end up in front of during an interview. I absolutely plan on targeting any firm doing any sort of recruiting. I'm just trying to get my foot back in the door at this point.
Other then what has been mentioned already; Guggenheim, houlihan, and, Piper Jaffray would be good places to look into.
Not sure where you go to school but could you get in touch with your Career Services office? Bet someone there could be helpful by telling you who has come back to campus for FT either last year or just historically in general
