Any Investment banks in Dallas?
Was wondering if there are any solid banks in the Dallas area.
Looking for BBs or top groups that people know of and that do well and close lots of solid deals.

Gs had a small regional office; jpm has a few analysts covering consumer and tech (I believe), possibly regional coverage as well; Jefferies has a PCA (private capital advisory) team that they poached from Greenhill (I think?), don't know too much about that team or what they do; Stephens has a small office but they might not meet your criteria. Most likely more, but these are just off the top of my head.
HL has a Dallas office that is healthcare focused. Their junior turnover has long been a problem, think the group has culture issues
GS is a small presence - may just be RE IB at this point, JPM is a MM focused group
You're really not going to find any sprawling BB offices or top deal closing groups (excluding HL perhaps). BB/EB IB is basically centered in NY with some regional teams in Chicago, SF/LA, and energy out of Houston.
Best way to get into one of those banks? Network w people there before?
What’s your tactic/advice on recruitment? Cold apply with a solid ass resume? Or always gotta reach out to people who work there first?
I mean obviously it’s always better to network but if you are coming from Harvard with a 4.0 and a BB IB sophomore gig then yeah you could probably drop the resume and do fine
95% of their hires will have strong Dallas or Texas ties - either highly qualified SMU/UT/Rice types, or people at targets/semi targets outside of TX who grew up in the area. These are two fairly deep pools so it's a tough sell if you have no Texas ties and no FT IB experience yet (different if you're lateraling). If you do have any connections to Texas, mention them in your cold email.
But yeah your application will go into a black hole if you cold apply. Definitely have to reach out via email first. These groups are fairly small so they only hire a handful of analysts.
You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. The Dallas office at HL has consumer, healthcare, industrials, and many other groups. Also, HL healthcare has an amazing culture from what I’ve heard and is a top advisor in the space. You should get your facts straight before you talk nonsense on Internet forums
So how long have you been working at HL?
RBC also has a group down here that does RE IB, also Lincoln International has a technology group, and HL has a pretty good presence as well. Finally, MHT Partners which is a small boutique focused on HC. I would say RE is really strong here
Stephens and HL have the largest offices there
GS has RE IB + a small IB Classic group
