Industrials has always been the busiest group at Opco. You can ask any analyst on Wall Street. An industrials analyst or two from Opco moved to Moelis in 2008.
You can say breadth of experience, huge sector with lots and lots of niche sectors within it, chance to work with real manufacturing companies driving the real economy, etc.
thank you very much for your comments, anyone else?
anyone?

Spend more time adapting an answer that actually incorporates your own story instead of just waiting for more cookie cutter responses.
Oppenheimer NYC - MA and Industrial Group (Originally Posted: 03/01/2010)
Hey guys I am interviewing with these two groups in NY for an analyst position. Any help with what type of questions to expect and the culture wise ? Thank you so so much
They'll likely grill you on your aspirations of becoming a PE-douchebag.
huh? Could you be more specific
i spoke with some people in the M&A group over there. It seems to be a rather boring and strict group.
However. I see that you have been interviewing around a lot and maybe you might want to think about your interview approach instead?
Not really sure how specific groups interview, but a friend of mine interviewed and ended up interning at Oppenheimer last summer. according to him, interviews were pretty standard. any interviews w analysts will be very casual whereas associates and especially the directors will ask quite technical questions. MD interviews are kind of a toss up. are you interviewing for SA or FT?
in terms of culture, i know industrials used to be known for working their analysts the hardest, but according to the friend that has changed. he says health care works the hardest now, with m&a close behind.
good luck
A lot of technicals in M&A. Industry groups mostly fit based.
M &A is technical- but very easy- I recommend you review Enterprise value, accretion/dilution, etc. Anything you would learn in financial modeling.
anything else
M&A --> incredibly boring group.
when you guys say boring, what do you mean, like the culture wise or the deal flow
Culture.
thank you every one for your comment!
anyone else would love to hear from as many as possible
anyone?
I had an interview with the M&A dept - My interviewers seemed to constantly mention who their previous employers were. And then continued to mention it. It seemed like every interviewer started every sentence with "when i was a bear, or when i was at JP Morgan..." I cant say I enjoyed meeting those guys - in my limited interaction.
In terms of the interview, it was entirely technical. Not too hard, but they did their best to apply pressure. The questions were relatively simple and fundamental, but were phrased in complicated situations.
wow, seems like everyone is not so fond of the MA group...I am really curious to meet them but this is just a phone interview so i dont know how it will be played out
I second avery's comment - each interviewer talked about their previous firm, many seemed to have a massive chip on their shoulder. Not a fan of the M&A team either.
thanks guys this has been really helpful
anything else to addd
failed the ma interview...i am so stupid
