Career Resources
If you're interested in Real Estate, Wells has the best team. Both FIG and RE are pigeonholey so might as well go for a top group.
Appreciate the advice. Just curious on Wells regal exits. Do they land top REPE roles consistently or are there any other areas they go into post banking?
If you’re interested in RE, do RE. If you’re interested in RX, Alix requires no introduction
Rx or DB Fig depending on ur interests
Comparing apples to oranges here since they are all different verticals... pick the industry that peaks your interest the best - as someone said they are all niche groups so it may pegionhole you
Alix or DB FIG
Alix isn’t out yet
They been out. Alix does a lot of unofficial recruiting.
Apologies if I'm wrong, but this looks a bit sketchy. RE and FIG and RX is an incredibly diverse range, almost too diverse to prepare effectively.
I didn’t actually prep for REGAL, you’re allowed to pick your group for WF after the interview. The superday is just general IB things. As for FIG and RX, I mean I’ve been active in one of my schools consulting clubs and investment funds, I’ve been preparing for this stuff pretty much since that start of freshman year. I’m gonna go with DB though, I’ve decided.
if what you're saying is that you don't have a guaranteed seat in the REGAL group, then yes, your decision makes sense granted that I believe you could even be placed in a random group in Charlotte come group recruitment.
