BB/Boutique FT Hiring

Hey guys, I'm going to be a senior from a target school and am interning at a MM PE firm this summer. From people I've spoken to at ~BB and from reading in the paper, it looks like the big banks are cutting back hiring big time. Plus most spots will be filled by SA.

I'm looking at boutiques as an option for full time. Do you guys have an idea how many spots are filled for boutiques from SAs vs BBs given market conditions? Any specifics that anyone might know would be great.

couchyok so i guess FT recruiting is going to suck major dick again this year

Did you not see Greenhill report earnings that were down 90%?

Should tell you all you need to know.

I saw basically every banks earnings go down.

 

One of my contacts is head of recruiting for a target school at BB. His words verbatim were 'there is no such thing as full-time recruiting anymore.' Now obviously this is a hyperbole, but it shows how ridiculously competitive it is.
