Your job is gone- the bank no longer exists. Recruit asap. Good luck

Fuck man I feel bad for your class. I just did a bit of full time recruiting myself this winter and it wasn’t an easy market. While you won’t see many well-known banks (at least until later in 2023 I’d say), there are a few smaller shops actively interviewing to bring on An1s.

It sucks you guys never really got to start. Honestly if you got the return offer then you’re good enough to start in IB, so don’t settle for something like deal advisory. Best of luck finding another seat. I’m sure your story coming from SVB will be understood when you start to interview.

 

100% misinformation from everyone here. SVB Securities is financially isolated from the parent company and EVERYTHING is business as usual on the broker dealer side. Clients understand this as well and are supportive. Whether SVB Securities spins out or gets acquired, it will still be around and you still have a job guaranteed.

 

Absolutely delusional.  Do not believe anything your seniors are telling you.

I want you to come back to this thread in 2 weeks and tell me I don’t have a job. I’ll be eagerly waiting for the “I told you so” and look like a clown

Throw all the MS you want.  But it doesn't change the fact your parent co no longer exists and had 100% of its equity wiped out.

Yeah...no big deal...we are financially isolated.  Clients are totally OK with this.
