Blackstone and Paulson have a contractual obligation to never interview the same analyst pool so this is impossible.
Try leveraging one against the other. Go to Blackstone and tell them Paulson is offering you 100K base and that you will join Blackstone if they offered you 110K base and vice-versa.
do you really have offers from both? find that hard to believe in this mkt
Are you interviewing for the hedge fund adviory at Blackstone? Or are you interviewing for a PE analyst at Blackstone and a <abbr title="hedge fund
">HF analyst at Paulson?So what do you do? -I work for an investment banking firm. Oh okay; you are like my brother, he works for Edward Jones. -No, a college degree is required in my profession
Im meeting with two alumni for coffee that are from those two firms.
You're a fucking tool for creating a "X vs. Y" thread simply because you're grabbing coffee with alumni from those firms. What, sippin non-fat lattes all of a sudden guarantees you an offer with Blackstone? HAHAHA, fuck outta here, kid.
You don't have offers from either. Why did you ask this question again?
I know none of the college kids will believe this but money should really be the last consideration in this hypothetical.
...but I'm in college and I'd agree 100%, especially at this age and environment. If you were coming in at a senior level, it might make sense to play for more money, but I hardly view being an analyst as being about the money. So what if you get 10k more one year out of college if long term you pass up millions of dollars worth of goodwill?
ohh, and I agree the OP is off his rocker to turn lattes in to an offer. Are you meeting them together? Do you expect them to get in to a bidding war for your services in the local Starbucks?
