I'm a 2023 graduate and currently work in Valuation Advisory in NYC. I've been at my firm for a year and looking to break into IB. Is FT 2025 recruiting a feasible option for me?
Would greatly appreciate any insight!

Same here! Pls help WSO folk :(
No ur a lateral hire
Not to hijack the thread but what about as a class of 24
see below.
Possible. HR at a top bank said you can either go the lateral hire route or the graduate program route for 2025.
Not all banks might do it. Go through bankers first, not HR.
