Hi All,
Hoping to get some guidance from y'all. I recently had a call with an MD at a MM IB and it ended with him saying he would be willing to help me get an internship with the firm (not sure how much effort is actually put towards this) and I know my resume was passed along to the recruiting team. First question is, how much weight does an email from an MD with my resume have in getting an interview, and second, should I submit an application on their online portal now or wait until I hear from HR?
Appreciate the help.

You'll probably get a good look if an MD forwarded your resume. I've had a lot of success with MDs pushing for you.
Any advice on whether or not I should complete an application on the online portal or if I should wait and see if I hear from HR?
I don't see why you didn't apply online already - there are no negatives to it really.
No harm in applying online but also ask the MD and see if there's an HR contact that you can directly contact.
@Dingdong08" and NuclearPenguins thanks for the advice, very true there is no harm in doing so
MD Recommendation Letters (Originally Posted: 08/17/2007)
Say you receive a recommendation letter from an MD at your firm. When is the appropriate time during the interviewing process to give banks your rec letter? Do you attach it to your resume/cover letter when you submit it? Do you bring it with you to the interviews? Or do you just wait until they ask for one?
On this topic, are you supposed to request these recommendation letters? As a summer analyst, isn't it expected you want to come back to that firm/office, so in requesting a recommendation letter it's kind of a slap in the face?
what bank did you get a rec letter from?
Just tape it to your tie. That way, it won't be awkward
i have a similar question. The MD at the firm i interned at this summer gave me an amazing recommendation, and while the firm is definitely not a first tier firm, he is an MD nonetheless with a Wharton MBA and 20+ years of experience on the street and as a former partner of the firm his recommendation should undoubtedly help out.
is there any way to bring it up or to give it to recruiters without coming off as tacky?
