Any advice on resignation and notice?

I’m a 1st year analyst at a BB (started July 2024) and have just not been fulfilled in this role.

Does anyone have advice on navigating notice period / resignation / advice you wish you knew before leaving? Even my 401k match rules I need to figure out those policies. Any advice appreciated!

As of now I don’t have binding offer and would obviously not resign until that happens, in final stages of interviews so something on my mind to think about lol

Investment Banking LinkedIn Review

“I wanted to share some feedback on my sessions with Andre. Andre has deep knowledge of investment banking, and he approaches every topic very strategically. His guidance while I was preparing my interview stories was especially valuable. One thing that stood out was that even a week after our previous session, Andre remembered me and everything I had shared about my background and goals. That meant a lot to me and made our sessions much more productive. He is also very direct. He tells me clearly what works and what doesn’t, which is exactly the kind of feedback I need. At the same time, he is funny and witty, so working with him is a lot of fun. Our sessions almost always run longer than scheduled, because Andre makes sure we cover everything properly before we wrap up. He is very dedicated and very patient, and I really appreciate the time and effort he puts in. I leave every session with Andre feeling clearer and more confident about my preparation. Thank you, Andre.”
