How tf are there 20 BB's? Is Stout also a BB now? FFS.
All big 3 BBs have solid ER, JPM in my opinion a bit better than MS/GS, so FT recruit ability should be fine. Personally know a few people that did ER SA gigs at BBs that then recruited FT successfully for BB/EB. Just an intern, but in my opinion as SAs we really don't do much of substance, so signalling you're a high-quality candidate through the ER gig then spinning the summer as a reason why you're really interested in banking sounds better than any marginal skills you would pick up through the low-tier IB internship.
top 20 bb wtf
Networking will always be way better at a top 3 BB vs a random MM IBD (re: hardass non target asians and jews)
not sure why this is downvoted (like obvs racist flavour but still true)
Ah yes, the top 20 BB IBDs. The same top 20 BB IBDs we all talk about on this forum, all the time... those unmistakable top 20 BB IBDs.
I want to know what you think. What do YOU think the top 20 BBs are?
I get it...it's a trick question because there aren't even 10 BBs. This guy is going to give out some wicked brainteasers when he gets to interview candidates.
GS ER really isn't top 3 on the street. If you want top of the street ER go to UBS/C/BaML/JPM. If you do join a MS/GS then lateraling internally to IBD shouldn't be insanely hard if it's in a coverage role, you'll have to prove yourself, but you'll have an edge over others if you hold your own.
Everyone here must be blind because I don’t see “top 20 BB” in the post, just “top 20 IB.”
Look at the URL vs the current title of the thread. The title has been changed. It previously said "top 3 BB ER vs top 20 BB IBD".
If by everyone, you're including yourself but excluding everyone else who was able to see the title was edited, then yes - 'everyone' is retarded.
