Should I Target BB for FT Recruiting?
I got an internship at a regional boutique investment bank for Summer 2024 given I started recruiting as a junior. I attend a "Semi-Target", as MM banks and EB are now targeting the school but I don't know so much so BB.
I plan on working in IB for 2-3 years, as most people do, and then possibly move to PE or another exit opportunity.
I am going to target MM/EB banks for full-time recruiting, but wondering if I'm selling myself short and should be networking/targeting with BB banks.
I don't care for the prestige as much as I want to ensure I have as many opportunities as possible.
My GPA isn't the best, it's a 3.45, due to my family's health and my personal struggle with depression. That is the reason why I don't know if I should target BB for full-time.
Why not?
Target across the wide spectrum and see what you land. FT recruiting is super fast though, might have better luck with lateraling.
Having done FT recruiting this past cycle...
Target literally everywhere. I would say BB tend to have more openings than EBs just on pure size, but I wouldn't be stressed.
I ultimately got interviews at BBs, EBs, PE analyst groups.
Networking for me didn't really help because I was focused on getting my RO first, so I cold emailed.
Where were u during the summer?
When did you start networking
may i PM you?
Why did you not network? Did just having a summer analyst position get you the interview?
