Echoing this. Must have been six or seven coffee chats and calls with different people before getting a first-round invite. If you like Chicago (that was where they usually had all SAs) and are excited by the merchant banking model seems like a great place to start a career. Not sure how things have changed since the merger with MSD but when speaking to them it seemed like everyone enjoyed their role. They are growing their analyst class and have also brought in lots of people from top banking roles that moved over after 1-2 years as well. 

 

When does recruiting start this year? Know MSDPartners recruits in the winter but not sure how merger has changed that
