IB Sell Day

Will be a new FT IB analyst starting this summer..WFC

I have a sell day coming up and I'm really unfamiliar with the process. I think we just view some presentations, maybe mingle with the teams and then rank them as they rank us. i could be wrong.

If anyone has any experience with these days, can you enlighten me? I've looked on some threads but they werent that informative.

Also, do you think its important to review any technical information? I don't think there is any interview process right?

Basically, is there any information I should know before I get there? I didn't really plan on studying for this but I'm wondering if I'm underestimating the whole process. Do I need to be up to date on deals and shit for each of the groups?

Thanks.

I think all you do is rank groups you want, nothing hard about it. I would consider M&A and their Consumer/Retail group, both very highly rated. The latter is a top 5 player in the U.S. with deals completed like Dollar's IPO, ToysRUs, Blackstone PE's djo acquisition, CVS, etc.

 

Great post BankonBanking. I also recommend their industrials group and of course M&A and levfin (top 5 player in US). Very solid up and coming BB so a good strategy might be to go for product groups first since its always a safe bet that they get the most dealflow with growth rather than trying to guess which industry group is going to get boosted.

 

bankonbanking: did you interview there? Do you know what kind of questions they ask? I also have interviews with a few other BB's like Citi and such, do you offer a interview guide on that website link under your name?
