Depends how picky you are. I just lateraled to a smaller firm fairly easily. If you’re only looking for established MM up to EB it might be more difficult. FWIW if you’ve failed 10 interviews it means your application is good enough to get in the door but you suck at interviewing. Good thing is you can practice this. Best of luck.

 

Lot of market turmoil with trump in office. I suspect MM / more established banks are hesitant to pull the trigger on people right now. Unfortunately can’t give you a definitive reason why you’re having trouble scoring offer. Something will hit though…all a numbers game. Best of luck man (or woman)
