Securitization at Big 4

Hi all,

I've been a long time lurker here on WSO and can confidently say the information and guidance posted on here has really helped in my career.

To give a little background about myself, I knew I wanted to work in high finance for the past two years. After graduating college, I took a random advisory role at a big 4 after having struck out with FO Finance opportunities coming from a large state school. Long story short, I was able to internally network with my firm and was able to transfer to securitization advisory here. I'm at my one year mark here, and am now looking for some exits, as banking/asset management has always been my goal.

I've looked on Linkedin to see where people at my firm and others at big 4's have gone, and was just wondering if anyone here worked at a big 4 in securitization and what their process was like in getting a role at a bank/asset manager. Also, if you have seen anyone else make the move and know anything about what they did to get to their new role, that would be great as well.

Thanks in advance, everyone.
