From friends and acquaintances, Houluhan RX>Jefferies>Houlihan Lokey=RBC
Houlihan RX takes the cake, but if not RX they still place decently well into MM PE shops, Jefferies has been killing it and has been getting kids into bigger funds because of the huge deals they’ve been doing especially in healthcare, RBC might be a balance sheet bank but they still place relatively well into the buyside, just my 2 cents
More or less agree with this but any difference between Jefferies and HL CF is likely negligible. Rankings are better thought of as tiered and these three are mostly in the same tier with maybe RBC being a half tier below the other two.
Also - from what I understand, seamless budgets are the same. The difference is RX gets lunch comped and that is because of the structure of their engagement terms with clients, not anything you are alluding to.
This is pretty much right.
Houlihan Rx even gets a better seamless budget than the rest of houlihan. That should tell you everything you need to know there.
Jefferies will one off place kids decently. RBC I think less so and would be fighting an uphill battle
