Sophomore at HPYS currently recruiting for 2019 IB SA positions. My plan is to network and apply to both BB and EB which will be ~20 firms total.
Has anyone run into trouble in the past with this method? I know it's a bad move to tell BBs that you're interviewing with EBs and vice-versa. Are other sophomores taking a similar approach?
