A number of tier 2 banks are currently recruiting at my school for IB positions and wanted to get thoughts/rankings on the following. (NY Locations)
The positions available are within Loan Syndications, ECM (Non M&A)
HSBC RBC SocGen BNP Macquarie
Additionally, while I am not expecting to shoot straight into HBS, would working IBD in such companies be respectable (lower ends of the M7 perhaps, with the proper extra-currics/GMAT?)
I am sure I'll get a few flame/troll posts but any advice would really be appreciated as this information will be helpful and used in making decisions.
Thanks In Advance.
I am of the opinion that saying Tier 2 Investment Banks are crappy is like saying "Tier 2" Ivy League Schools are crappy,
realistically, any job in IBD places in the top X percentile of college graduates, so if you have an opportunity to work in IB even if it's a "tier 2" bank, you should take it.
Don't forget to add Barcap in those Tier 2 banks. In Europe, Asia it is clearly Tier 2 alongside with Nomura as well.
You're an idiot.
Why are you so set on getting a MBA when you haven't even started working?
Seeing it as a possible option for the future.
And to the tier 2 comment above, any IBD opportunity would be sought after, coming from a non-target I am just looking to get my foot in the door.
Any advice on the banks above would be great!
In terms of real IBD experience: RBC > Macquarie....and then the rest, at least in the U.S., focus mostly on lending.
For B-School, it would probably be a toss-up and would depend more on GMAT, UGrad, extra curriculars as x-factors.
Thanks for the input analyst.
Although I know SG/BNP's presence is far more pronounced in EU, is it still respected on the street in terms of syndications, levfin, ecm?
bump for info.
