Looking to lateral to IB from a trading role… open to suggestions
I’ve been working at the same firm out of college for over 4 years (including internship), and I’m honestly burnt out and looking for a change.
My question is about what level I should apply for in IB with over 4 years of financial advisory/trading expertise? Given my resume and the success I’ve had at a bulge bracket financial advisory firm, I’m thinking that I could probably lateral to a VP position, but I’m willing to step down to an associate role if it’s the right firm. Open to any and all suggestions, thank you in advance!
Even with experience at a top firm? I progressed in my role quickly.
0% chance you'll lateral into a VP role
I was really high performing at my firm. And it’s a top tier financial advisory firm.
You’ll be an analyst if you break in
How are you gonna manage and quality assure / grow analysts&assos when you never did the job ? Makes me think ur a squid this is incredibly naive
No clue why everyone is gate keeping the VP role from me - I even said I’d take an associate role for the right firm. I was top of my internship class at NWM and had continued success building out a team below me of people OLDER than I am. I’m no stranger to developing talent and have climbed the corporate ladder faster than you analysts commenting on my post. Plus, I’d like to think my technical skills are pretty sharp too.
