Those of you who have rejected an offer for a "better" offer, how did that work out?
I am currently in a position where I have received an IB SA offer from a MM bank, and although it is not a super prestigious bank, a SA position is a SA position, and I am very grateful. They have given me a few days to accept, so I am naturally weighing my options for next summer. I am a believer that it's not where you start, it's where you finish, and I feel like gaining experience is what matters most, but curious to hear stories or opinions of those who have refused an offer in hopes of a "better" offer (whether that is pay, location, group, etc.) and how did it work out for you? Also, any thoughts or guidance is recommended! This can be for both FT or SA, but my personal position pertains to a SA position.
Refusing an offer for a better offer is one thing. Refusing an offer in the hopes of a future, not guaranteed offer is idiotic. Certainly don't go into a career in risk with that kind of thought process.
I have accepted the offer, and was not suggesting that I was going to decline it just in hopes of going somewhere better, I more-so just wanted to hear about others who may have taken a bit of a risk with their offers in specific time frames. Also as it turns out it is not in risk management so I should be okay!
Minus ipsam quidem est neque. Quidem incidunt eaque sint ut sit et qui. Ut asperiores sunt sed et. Quo quaerat quae repellat possimus.
Recusandae qui laboriosam magnam itaque. Sed possimus totam quos et voluptatibus aut.
