Interning at an EB in a very good group but not in the NY office. I want to switch offices for FT and am planning on having that conversation with some people in my group that I am close with, but wanted to hear any advice or thoughts.

10.1.3Safe approach- get the return then ask. They aren’t going to retract it just for asking, and there’s a chance they say yes.
Risky- ask before returns go out. There’s a chance they’ll consider you for a seat in NY (ie taking the spot of a current intern there if you’re deemed a better option). This risks your shot at a return in your current office if they’re worried you wouldn’t accept it/don’t want to be there
bump. would liek to know what happened in the end. in the same position now thinking to switch office
bump
No longer a hot job market for prospective applicants. I would be wary on the ask given the team at your offer location probably had the biggest say in your return offer.
100% ask after u get return - make sure to preface you’re ok with the office your in, but you’d rather be in NY
