but mike said it well....houston for energy
If you want to do energy, do you have to go to houston or is nyc a possibility?
Most banks have energy bankers in NYC (the group is called Natural Resources)
It depends on each bank, there's no univerisally great industry group.
thanks guys
i know you really have to determine a good industry group by looking at the bank. but i just wanted to see which industry groups you typically learn the most. didn't know whether there were huge differences or not. all i know is to not do healthcare
Thanks
