What boutique is it
I'd rather not give out specifics, as I don't want this being traced back to me.
Take GE Capital 100%
What group or what sector?
Take the boutique offer and lateral later
Take GE. EFS is recovering nicely, and they do good work in the sector.
It's more of a financial sponsors type of job, so I actually think it could set you up for PE as an exit. As for business school, GE is top notch experience.
Would have to disagree with above posters depending on the type of boutique. If it is at all reputable, I'd take the boutique offer. If base is at least 75k, analysts also come from top schools, would be safe to assume youre in a good spot op
Tough to break into Harvard or Stanford MBA regardless of your career path, so take either. Wharton is more doable.
I'm at HYPS with a 3.8 and a 720 GMAT. I hope to improve the score though, so I'm just looking for which job would be best. Any ideas?
easily GE just because name will matter unless this is an elite boutique but doesn't sound like it is.... also what role specifically is it?
