Questions about TMT Banking from a generalist

capitan del banco — Sat, 31 May 2008 08:42:26 -0400

I'm a generalist who typically works with companies engaged in manufacturing and value-added distribution, but am interviewing at a boutique that focuses on the TMT industries next week. Anbody know of any specific resources I should check out or any items unique to TMT banking that I should be aware of (e.g., non-standard valuation techniques, etc.)?

Thanks

I work at a boutique M&A shop in Pittsburgh. We're looking for an analyst or two with some relevant transaction experience and for some reason we have had some difficulty in finding qualified local applicants.

Recruitment referral bonuses at BB's?

Do the BB's offer referral bonuses to their employees who recommend experienced hires that get hired? If so, and you work at a BB and would like some extra $$$, send me a PM. I'm an associate at a boutique looking to make a move.

Thanks (and yes I'm serious)

I apologize if this has been suggested before.

With this change way you can distinguish advice from actual experience from the speculation posted by others. (This is assuming people don't lie, which they probably will to some extent. It would still be helpful.)

PowerPoint as an art form...No more boring books!

I had a dream last night where I was putting together the best book ever.

When I woke up this morning I decided that I'm taking PowerPoint to the next level. From now on all my deal books are going to be as entertaining as grocery store tabloids. No more than 2 sentences without some sort of nifty graphic or table. If I could get holograms and multi-media in them I totally would.

When I told my VP he just looked at me like I was delirious. Who here is on board?
