now that I think of it the Gaming group if the bank has one, would be pretty sick to work for, exit opps aside.
are gaming groups usually a part of TMT or GIG?
I'm pretty sure that "Gaming" in particular does not refer to video games or other consumer electronics. It refers more to casinos, which is why you oftentimes seen real estate and lodging groups also handle gaming.
Video games would probably fall under tech (similar to software) or consumer, but most likely tech.
