Is a low tier bank like DB or Guggenheim easy to get?
Seems like everyone only wants the top shops on here so how competitive are the other lower banks? Advice please

i'm currently at a top tier BB, but got rejected by DB after interviewing for their superday lol Plenty of randomness in the recruiting process tbh
But you must not have tried at DB. No one wants to work there
Why are people giving me monkey shit? Those two firms must have acceptance rates above 50% for IBD
Dude those are in the WSO database for superdays only and the numbers are too high. They've screened out 98% of the candidates by the time you are invited to a super.
It's not like your applying to Arizona State.
It's arguably more difficult, since the "lower ranked" banks want to be the top tier banks and they have more to prove. Most likely, if you are even able to get an interview in the first place with the top shops, it will be a fair and even tone throughout the interview process. Lower ranked shops have turned up the heat on questionable candidates in the past.
Point is, all of these banks have the same goals in mind. They all want the best kids from the best schools. Those kids have their pick of the litter every year, as long as they meet some very basic requirements of ability. For kids that don't fit this background, it's up to you to prove yourself in each interview you're lucky to get.
You think its easy? It is **never **easy.
Too bad you didn't land in the above 50% acceptance rate section.
wow you all must be a bunch of non targets w no networking ability and a low gpa. good luck
Just cause DB and Gug declined to interview you, don't need to cry so hard.
