Hey guys,
I have a "dilemma" and need your help. I recently landed an offer with a MM PE shop outside of NYC. The firm operates in the MM space, across multiple industries. Won't disclose exact fund size for anonymity, but it is in the $1.5-3B AUM range.
My main concern is that the role is outside of NYC. I am also currently doing my analyst stint outside of NYC, and fear that I won't have an opportunity to end up there anytime soon.
My question is - should I take the offer, or take the risk, hold off, and recruit aggressively for the last 6 months of my analyst stint in hopes of landing in NYC?
Let me know your thoughts. Happy to answer any questions too!
Just a note to consider, if it takes you longer than 6 months to land something in NYC, are you going to regret not taking the offer you had originally? What if it was for less money than the other firm offers you? Just some things to think about before completely throwing away the other offer, as it's entirely possible it could take that + longer to find something you truly like better than what you just were offered. Congrats on the offer.
I agree. Also, if you're considering getting an M7 MBA, this position will make you a better candidate, and you will then be able to apply to NYC-based firms.
Sounds like you wanna end up in NYC, so by "outside of NYC" do you mean another major city, a NYC suburb, or like middle of nowhere?
Correct. This would be a major city on the West Coast.
am I missing something here? why do you need to end up in NYC?
