F9 - Update:
Is six weeks a short amount of time/a lot of time? Why did you emphasize six weeks? I won't start banking until July, so I'm not quite sure what you are trying to say here.
The most advance notice I ever had as an analyst of a pitchbook was 2 weeks, but that was the longest by far. Depending on the managing director, it could range from 8 days to 1 day. One of the most miserable staffings I ever got was a two-fer that required back to back 50 page books. The second meeting ended up getting cancelled, but we were in the office until 6AM finishing the first one, anyways. At 9AM, I was woken up from a phone call from the MD's assistant telling me the second pitch was back on, and that he would appreciate it if we could put the 2nd 50 page book together for the next day for an even earlier time.

I'm very tempted to make a parody video focused on what banking is actually about...

"People like Binita are responsible for decisions that could make or break.... font sizes in the pitchbook!"

On second thought such a video would probably get me fired so maybe I'll wait til July or so.

The beginning part is actually the most accurate moment of the entire video, you really do spend a good amount of time running places delivering pitchbooks.

 

The music in the beginning of the video sounded like it was straight out of a tribal ritual or a poorly made Arabic/Indian hip hop song. I love this comment on YouTube:

"Basically, she looked at an income statement and noticed that revenues dropped 10 billion euros in one year, and, given fixed profit margins, that net income dropped 2 billion euros.

And this analysis took six weeks."
