Hi,
I'm trying to break into equities research from Big 4 audit. I emailed a headhunter w/ my resume and the HH told me that they don't recruit at the junior level. Their clients hire directly on campus for analysts. I remember hearing previously that somebody on this forum broke into IB through HHs. Mind sharing experience? Thanks in advance.

Do you mind telling what kind of credentials you have? Do you have a CPA?
Sure. 2006 grad from non-target (still decent). Accounting, GPA 3.8+. GMAT 770. CFA level 2 candidate. Auditing one of the largest private equity funds. No CPA. Internship in equities research in an emerging market. Solid financial modeling skills. Looking for entry-level research positions -- I would assume I'm qualified. I haven't contacted other HHs yet. Do most HHs only do experienced placements?
