Which offer is best for exit opps
Hi all, I’m currently deciding between a few opportunities and wanted to get some advice. Like many here, I’m trying to optimize for exit opportunities, so I want to make sure I’m setting myself up for the best long-term trajectory.
I have an offer to join a Top BB coverage group (think GS TMT / MS Tech). At the same time, I’ve secured an analyst role at a MF PE shop (BX / KKR / Apollo). I also have an offer from a leading private credit platform (Ares / Oaktree). On the public markets side, there’s a Top L/S Hedge Fund analyst seat (Citadel / Point72) and a quant researcher role at DE Shaw.
Outside of finance, I’ve been offered a spot in Google’s APM program and a SWE role at Meta. Finally, I have a VC analyst role at a top-tier fund (Sequoia / a16z) & a corp dev offer at Stripe.
Given all that, I’m trying to think carefully about which role offers me the best exit opportunities. I want to keep doors open so which option provides the most exits.
bro this is fucking insane 💀💀💀. take either any of them lmao damn
If you believe this, you’re beyond cooked
oh shit my bad. so cooked so cooked bro what 😂😂😂
Bro
This is not real
How did you manage the figure that out?
I don't think what you described is possible, but it would entirely depend on what you want to do in your life
Half of the options you gave are the ideal exit ops
not enough prestige mentioned to be worthy of advice, sorry
Seriously, not even drafted by the NFL or nominated for a senate seat
Deadass this guy is cooked for his future and will never be elected to congress
I'd say of these, quant researcher role at DE Shaw is gonna set you up best for the ideal exit op - IBD at Cantor Fitzgerald.

RBC

How did Stephanie Zhan, Charlie Curnin, etc. become "Partners" at Sequoia shortly after graduating from college? I understand connections and have heard that some of the top venture capital firms give everyone the title of Partner. Any additional insights?

You landed everything but the holy grail (PJT RSSG)
Truth spoken here
Have you considered Tobin & Company?
Have you heard back from RBC yet?
I would suggest trying to delay your graduation by a year and re-recruit. Not many good options here, I think you’d be better off giving it another go and seeing if you land something better
Doesn't matter. Being Jamie Dimon's nephew will give you as many exit ops as you need after your analyst stint.
Exit opp lizard king
Have you accepted your northwestern mutual offer yet ?
is this for 2025 or 2026? dm me - was in similar boat
No PJT RSSG offer, you are cooked
Congrats on Excalibur
I assume you failed to get into YC's S25 batch. You should just give up at this point
Congrats on Northwestern Mutual
