This is your VP here. Listen champ maybe sit the next couple plays out for a while. Know what I mean? Bring me my halal guys on time. Once you can handle the basic blocking and tackling then we chat models.

You need to provide more context. As a second year analyst, this is how I'm thinking of handing off these responsibilities to my first year. 

  1. Are these deals on a tight timeline? If so, I'm handling the model and having the first year support on other things. It will take you twice the time to do what I do and then I have to spend more time checking your work - all while the VP is breathing down my neck asking why things are taking so long.
  2. Are these new or existing deals? If it's a new deal, I'm setting up the model so that it is efficient and set up right from the start. I would try to hand it off afterwards, but then ask question 1 again.
  3. Have you excelled at the other tasks I've given you? If not, I'm more wary of handing something off that has more consequences for being wrong than miss-numbered slides or logos that aren't alphabetical. 

I honestly wouldn't sweat it. I really didn't get to touch a model (in a serious sense) till like 6 months in. From what I have heard from others, it can be even later depending on other factors.

 


Were you not aware of the responsibilities before you started the role? There are not that many firms that let first years touch the model. Who do you think were aligning logos before you?

It usually goes something like this.

First years get majority of the bullshit admin work > as they transition to second years, summer interns come in and take over the role. As the interns leave > the incoming first years take on the shitty job again
