Applying to 2 positions within a firm? (On campus recruiting)
There are many companies that recruit on campus for multiple positions. Is it a bad idea to apply to both IB and S&T for one company, i.e. Morgan Stanley? The reason is I want to keep my options open. This is for summer analyst positions. I'm afraid applying to more than 1 will show a lack of focus if there's any chance the two different groups can cross-check resumes.
Depends on the firm.
When I was doing SA recruiting, some BBs said to feel free to apply to multiple positions (usually up to 3) with the disclaimer that if we did well in multiple interviews, we would have to choose a single position to continue interviewing for.
On the other extreme, though, there was another BB that allowed applicants to submit resumes for 2 positions, but at a later info session said that they had counted that against the applicant because they wanted people that knew what they wanted to do.
Safest bet would be to email the recruiter as they should be able to tell you how recruiting works across the different groups.
They will only ever pick you for one. Jut understand the implications that is all. I know tons of people who hedge themselves like that. Good friend applied to BO and MO at GS, thinking MO was a stretch but she was like what the heck. Ended up interviewing and getting the offer in MO.
What about applying to different locations?
