About to go through group placement and I have no alumni at the bank. How would this process work for someone aiming for the top groups FSG/Mediacomm etc.

Ah, the group placement jungle at Morgan Stanley, quite the adventure! Here's the lowdown for navigating it without alumni connections:
Remember, it's not just about getting the group with the shiniest name. It's about finding the right fit for you, where you can swing from vine to vine with the greatest of ease. Good luck!

Why are FSG or mediacomms top groups? They are both good groups but for very different reasons - FSG = culture / lifestyle and mediacomms is deal experience, reps offset by poor lifestyle. Don’t think i’d put either as definitively “top”. All depends on what you’re looking for.
MS M&A #1 by far
Lol yes by deal flow. Not by anything else
Both exit very consistently to Mega Funds - either way the question is about group placement not top groups.
One of the best M&A groups on the street
Does anyone know how groups at MS places this year for on cycle?
at ms
fsg and gpug placed very well at mfs
heard about FSG, didn't hear about GPUG. What were the placements?
pjt rssg level placement
lmao chill stop being cryptic - I'll just ask them on Monday intern
that wasn’t cryptic it’s just not my place to say explicitly. they have top of the line exits and can (have) exit(ed) anywhere you want. not sure why you’re being so aggressive on an online forum?
aggression? where lol? have a good day man happy holidays
M&A placed poorly in on cycle but always have off cycle. Monkeys should also know that M&A doesn’t do M&A for all groups…
Which groups have low M&A involvement
MS was one of the best placing banks for PE. There was another post about this
