UK FT Market is poor
Can't get FT in LDN even with prior experience in IB x PE. What other career paths would you recommend where pay is solid.

Career Resources
It's not poor. EVR, CVP, MS, GS, JPM etc, all opened up for FT hiring this year and I know people getting offers (even multiple). So its probs down to you.
Also without that attitude of "what other careers that are high pay" is probably why you didn't get anything.

What are the interviews like for FT if you have prior experience?
Depends firm to firm obvs. If you have done SA recruiting, its that but just a bit more difficult. Usually more relaxed on the technicals if you have good experience anyways (i.e. prior summer in PE/IB with a return offer in hand). More focused on fit, reflections on your SA experience
True, some of the process like GS did not even start yet
Thanks mate, broke it down perfectly for me, this was really helpful. So I just need to support another team then, maybe i should just support Man U.
