Career Resources
It’s possible. Know 2 individuals personally who went from an MM bank to a pod shop. I myself back in the day interviewed for a pod shop.
Yes this is a pretty obvious. Do a basic LinkedIn search before asking. MMHF’s are all about meritocracy. P72’s motto is “championing meritocracy”
A slogan is not reality
Yes, but won't be as easy. Hiring is up to the team, and increasingly standards are being raised.
Standards are being raised does not imply a high quality candidate cannot come from MM. Many many high quality people in the industry came from less “prestigious” backgrounds. You can literally exit almost anywhere if you know how to network and can provide value.
It’s a good thing they didn’t say someone from an MM can’t break in then
For what it’s worth, a guy from Nomura joined one of the new pods at my shop not too long ago
I did this. 3.5 years at MMIB in S and T analyst to HF macro pod analyst
The top pods (Candlesticks/Holocene) that spun do just as much prestige whoring as the tiger cubs. Would imagine the Big swinging dicks could just go to BD and say I only want a certain profile.
