I just started in FDD out of college and am currently studying for technicals and learning financial modeling. When do I know when a lot of analyst spots will be opening up? I’ve heard March since bonuses are given out then?
Also, are there any good cities to focus on besides New York? Currently in an area where IB isn’t so prevalent so I’d have to relocate.
