Industrials; Power; TMT; Oil & Gas are all strong in London
Thanks Tosen! Given Industrials is one of the biggest teams (ca.70 people) do you think that translates into good deal experience as a junior? I read that if you're in the wrong sub-group it can be an issue?
Also they've hired a ton of UBS bankers in the last year, incl. New head of M&A and co-head of Industrials - seems they're investing in the platform but don't know how much of a positive it is?
Yes, industrials has got good deal flow and is a great place for juniors to start.
Not sure on the sub-groups in industrials though...
bump
I believe Energy and Oil and Gas have been merged - I met few people from the team and they are really smart
Energy and Oil & Gas are the same thing.
There is another team which is Power & Utilities.
Sorry, Power and Oil & gas
To clarify: yes, which sub-group within Industrials matters a lot.
Don't have further insights, just that you need to diligence that area a lot more because indeed it can make or break your experience.
And what about M&A? I get conflicting views so appreciate any real insights.
Just my 5 cents: City seems to have little visibility when it comes to PE recruiting which seems odd as they're a solid place.
Depends a lot on the team. TMT has had really good exits recently
