Best path to AM Research Analyst: Sell-side Research or Investment Banking
Currently, a rising junior in college and my ultimate career goal is to be a Buy-Side Analyst or PM. What is the better career starting point, Sell-Side ER or Investment Banking? I will apply to Buy-Side firms this year for my junior year internship, but if I can't land one which would be a better one to choose? I talked to a buy-side analyst at a large mutual fund and he told me IB which is where he started.
ER is the more traditional route, but some funds do like former bankers. I would go with ER if you can, but jobs are rarer. Also, ER will give you more time to do the CFA compared to IBD.
Would it be better to start on the buyside or sellside? Also, would you prefer performance over reputation?
