Poll: Target or Non-target and are you at a top BB/EB or lower tier bank

Want to get a sense of the demographic of users on this site. Poll: https://strawpoll.com/polls/2ayLW2GrBZ4

Please only respond if you are US based and have an IB SA offer, FT offer, or are currently working or have worked an IB job.

Are you a HYPSM/W student/grad, a non-HYPSM/W target student/grad, or a non-target student/grad and do you have an offer for or work/worked at a top BB/EB in IB in NYC or another bank?

If you’re at a top group in the Bay Area (GS TMT, MS Menlo) please vote for the top BB/EB in NYC option.
