I think I have an answer to this question, but I just want to ask the WSO community as a 'sanity check', I have two offers in hand:
- 3 month Internship w/ NYC mezz debt fund - will not convert to FT opportunity
- F500 FP&A @ a divisional HQ - FT
My end goal is within 0-1 yrs enter an MSF program [Vandy, Duke, Villanova, etc.] and break into IB
Background: business undergrad at a non-target, triple-major w/ high GPA, military exp., PE internship Junior, CorpFin internship Sophomore, got interviews w/ MM IB's this season w/ lots of help from network, but didn't close any
As much as I shudder at the thought of it, I'm thinking to play my cards safe, I should take the FP&A role, crush-it and then move on applying in R1 to MSFs... Agree/Disagree.. thoughts?
How did you not close anything especially with that experience?
About 3/4 of my interviews [I had 9-10] were prefaced with were're committed to taking our SA's before non-core to when it got later [Oct/Nov] flat out: 'your resume has been passed to us from XYZ and it looks great, but were're done hiring'
I think I was perceived as a legitimate candidate w/ 3 banks, the rest it seemed like I was being interviewed b/c the interviewer was doing a favor for my reference. Of those 3 I made it to 1 superday and got dinged b/c I fucked up an easy paper/pencil model [incorrectly reconciling the sale of an asset/ w/ accum. depreciation] and the others I don't really know what happened.
I think you're correctly wondering if it's a 'ME' problem and I asked myself that too and some of my contacts and they agreed that it was not...
Oh didn't realize it was for FT instead of SA
Sorry to hear man, such is life though, there are always a few bumps in the road
which mezz fund is this?
Not well-known... a start-up w/ in a boutique investment bank
