RJ vs Piper vs Solomon vs BDO
Hi everyone,
Currently at the end of my FT recruiting after working at a boutique last summer. I have 3 final rounds and 1 2nd round coming up in the next couple weeks.
Wanted to get everyone's opinion on these 4 banks. All 4 are in T2/T3 cities (MIA/DC/TPA) and RJ/Piper/Solomon are specific groups (HC Tech/A&D/Distribution).
Context:
BDO may seem random here but they're opening 3 brand new M&A offices opening 2026, so I would be a first-year hire and I'm thinking that could play out well for me promotion and responsibility wise.
Piper recently acquired G^2 Capital Partners so it would be under that former team, any color on them would be appreciated.
Not sure what the long-term goal is yet, but want to keep my options open for MM/LMM PE and GE if possible
When did you get Solomon and BDO 💀. Had 1st round with Solomon like 3 weeks ago and BDO I’m still coffee chatting for Richmond
What city do you want to be in ideally? Are you leaning towards any particular coverage?
BDO is an accounting firm
Solomon would be my pick based on what you said but I don't know how they've done more recently but have always interacted with some sharp folks over there
