IR to ER

Hi all,

I am currently 4 years into IR (2 years full-time post-undergrad) for a small-cap firm and am considering a transition to ER.

Curious to hear y’all’s thoughts on how I can make such a transition, I.e. are there any specific ways I should tailor my resume to speak on how IR has prepared me for ER, etc.

The way I've seen this done is basically using the network of analysts you gain while at IR. I.e. these people lateral within the same sector into teams they previously served on the corporate side.

 

Good to know. By this, do you mean reaching out to the exact analysts/associates I've worked with and basically saying "hey, would love to join y'all"?
