Hey guys, I’m an incoming SA at a BB and we have a group placement process coming up.
Given the current situation and craziness, which would be more strategic in terms of full-time offer probability, M&A product group or an industry coverage group (those are my two options)? Is an M&A product group more risky given current/future economic outlooks?
Thanks in advance for the insight!
