Investment Banking Career Roadmap (optional)

“I had a really informative and actionable career roadmap with Tim. We went through what I wanted to do longterm and and then we went over the two different paths I was interested in. Tim gave me personal experience of colleagues that made similar steps to the sector that I want to be in. He then provided me with information on the timeline of I should expect when it comes to recruiting and what to do ahead of the time. There was a huge focus on getting a great resume fleshed out, networking with recruiters, current analysts, people who knew people who were hiring. There was a huge emphasis on getting the Series 65 that the company I'm currently working at done before continuing anything else. I look forward to working back with Tim on this endeavor around mid-November. ”

Investment Banking LinkedIn Review

“Johnathan was really good at checking out my Linkedin and making surfing there were not many issues with it. He seemed to know his stuff very well and he was curious about all the posts that I had liked and he had different tactics to make sure that my linkedin could stand out from the rest and make it very competitive for my 2028 internship. The only criteria I had was minimal and it was that he was a few minutes late but that is not a big deal, I know he is a busy guy but overall he was great.”

I might be wrong, but if you are working in BO and want to eventually move to PE or VC, moving to MO or a non-IB role is not exactly a step in the right direction. Why not work at your current job a bit longer and either try moving to IB or go for an MBA?

I agree but both those roles would bring him closer than staying in Ops. You may not be able to jump to the buy-side immediately from these two roles, but it would bring you closer to IBD and an M7 than staying in Ops.

Thanks. Appreciate it.

Any input as to which offer I should take? I also wanted to add that I would be covering Fortune 500 companies opposed to working with smaller clients from my previous role. ($30MM to $500MM in revenue)
