Hi everyone!
I was hoping to get people's perspective on this. I have an alum in GCM at Morgan Stanley and he said it may be challenging to get an IBD interview since we do not have any alumni in the division. Would you all say it would look bad to apply to both GCM and IBD when recruiting season comes around? Should I play it safe and go with GCM since the alum can help me out?
Thank you!
