ECM ==> FT Opportunities?
Soph with SA BB ECM offer. Given unfortunate timeline wasn't able to interview at any EB / M&A banking roles w/o offer exploding, despite accelerated interviews. Had SD at top EB (MOE/EVR/LAZ), but it was just beyond the offer deadline. Also had multiple higher-ups / ppl reaching out to me abt ECM. Tried to push HR for extension, but they didn't budge. Ultimately withdrew from EB (due to offer exploding + worry of reputational risk so early in my career). Did I make the right decision?
Now thinking abt FT recruiting from two lens:
- Figured On-Cycle PE pretty much cooked in ECM, what about lateral to EB M&A full-time? Conversion rate / is it easy?
- What about ECM ==> buyside publics seat? SMs / MMs recruit from ECM?
Bump
No you didn’t. “Exploding offers” are BS. Say yes, and keep recruiting. Do what’s best for you. These banks do not care about you lmao. They can fill your spot in 45 minutes - don’t even feel guilty
