Canadian Big 5 to US EB/BB lateral process
Looking to move to the states after 1 year of banking experience at big 5 bank. Was wondering what the interview process looks like in terms of networking (getting the interview) & the interview process itself.
Take into account a problem:
- While my team has good deal flow, I'm in a niche industry that is not big in the states. Would love to switch industries once I lateral but was wondering how US firms would look at that / am I pigeon holed?
Plenty of laterals I know just applied and got in
Do you know what their interview process was like?
bro is an intern
any comments on visas? does it depend on what you studied in uni?
For that, it would just TN visa if you're Canadian I believe. If not, you would need an H1B which is pretty difficult to get.
Interviewed at some top shops for this year start but none of them are taking a risk with H1B for a fresher/junior, probably only for senior levels. And I got referrals from as high up as you can think.
TN doesn’t work anymore. It’s only used as last resort
bump, interested as well

Why don’t you apply for other jobs in the US? IB isn’t the only high paying job in the US - unlike Canada.
In similar spot (at a Canadian M&A group) what other positions are willing to sponsor and have decent comp? Ive heard good things about LMM PE at a good shop (heard comp and progression is attractive, hours are good, and can be located in LCOL/tax favorable states).
