Those currently working at a firm,
Could you chime in provide some insight on how the job market is affecting the new recruiting class for seniors looking for FT positions? Are there less spots this year? The same? I'm looking to recruit primarily in LA but also in SF.
I was thrown into a slight frenzy yesterday when a senior associate at ZS Assoc told me that they would be only picking up ONE new FT analyst for the next year. People have always told me that FT recruitment is a bit more lenient in that they hire a couple more heads than Internship recruitment, but after hearing that...just not sure anymore.
Thanks,
East coast, involved in recruiting. Our target numbers havent changed much if at all.
East cost as well, our (MBB) target numbers haven't changed either. If anything, could be higher than previous year.
Should add that the numbers I am referring to above are both national and specific to my office - from that I'm extrapolating that the West coast should be experiencing the same thing.
Recruiting is really tough right now for FT, particularly because since jobs are slim, a lot of summer interns are accpeting their FT offers, making it so that there are far fewer spots. I work at a top MM, and usually our FT analyst class is about 100 people -- this year all of the US spots are filled, with the exception of 1 spot in my office.
consulting cabaret.... not banking.
Was thinking the same thing....kind of freaked me out for a second.
Well, I just got word that Deloitte's office is also only picking up approx. 2 as well. Is this normal?
How many people do tier 1 and 2's usually pickup per office?
Same thing we've seen the last few years. It's getting more and more competitive for fewer spots. Time to get creative...
Bigger offices are the usual suspects at any firm. What city are you referring to?
speaking for MBB and tier 2 at my alma mater, I know the full time class this year is looking a bit slim because so many internships were handed out with accepted return offers, on top of all the kids taken from 2012.
