take RBC offer or no?
Serious Should I accept an RBC offer or decline and keep recruiting the next few months? I feel like deep down I'd be unhappy and self conscious knowing I could have ended up somewhere better

You'd have little to lose with an RBC offer even in a great market. It is a very good firm, and is well known for having weathered the '08 crash better than almost any other big bank. (And I have never worked there). In this environment you should absolutely take it.
What would be a good idea, and entirely reasonable, is do some extra due diligence on the stability of the group that is extending you the offer, and get as much reassurance as you can that if you accept and stop recruiting, they will actually have a position for you.
You're not going to get anything binding out of those conversations, but you will be able to read between the lines and judge for yourself if they really believe what they're telling you.
Of course! RBC is a well respected lower middle market investment bank that specializes in ECM deals tossed over by Piper Sandler. If you're a company with $100-$200K in EBITDA please reach out to [email protected]
