As the dust is settling from the rush of initial on-cycle interviews, curious to see which banks or groups placed best. Any know of any banks that absolutely killed it in terms of placements?

Feel like it’s really hard to generalize by bank.
Friend in Barclays HC said they absolutely crushed this year, apparently almost everyone was able to land a MF (if they wanted it).
Can’t generalize a whole bank’s placements ya prospect
Anyone know how people at CS fared?
1st years in my coverage group which is not usually cited as a strong one at CS placed very well. Everyone who wanted MF got it.
How were exits from Evercore?
abysmal tbh
only one data point, but friend in M&A got MF offer so I imagine as well as they have historically
At least one to BXPE. Not super helpful but I know a friend who did M&A at EVR and signed at BX.
Pretty good
From M&A: KKR TMT, 2x Silverlake, Insight, 2x BX, 3x APO, Warburg, Thoma, 2x CDR, Carlyle so far...
From RX: APO, Veritas, Gamut, BX Tact Opps
Is this real? That seems off.
Spoke to my friend at Laz last week and it sounded like they had some nice exits. Only remember Apollo and Warburg specifically but this was like 1-2 days in
heard Lazard had a few guys go big four
deleted
Seconded, heard from a friend who's there and mentioned a number of really strong exits
Any word on PWP's placement?
Bump
Barclays placed 193 in K/A/B.
193?
PJT absolutely killed it, both RX and M&A
How did HL RX do?
Bump. I know a guy that went to Oaktree special sits
bump - interested in lateraling
GS TMT placement?
Thoma Bravo, Advent, KKR ... just to name a few.
It’s GSTMT I’m sure they did ok…
Silver lake, GA, H&F, CapitalG, some got Warburg turned it down, and a couple others probably lotstet here
Didn’t hear anyone getting APO / BX / Carlyle / KKR
Is this a mix of SF and NYC or just one vs. the other?
Assuming this is SF TMT?
Would be surprised if NYC TMT didn't place at APO / BX /.KKR this cycle,
Know at least 1 BX SF TMT
Why'd they turn down Warburg?
Anyone know about WB?
From tech, several GTCR, AKKR, Marlin, WCAS, Sumeru, seems like a majority didn’t recruit, but those that did placed whereever they wanted to go.
Friend in tech there got Berkshire as well
MS M&A placed lights out.
Where?
2x H&F, Blackstone, KKR Media, GA, CD&R, TPG, Bain
Really top notch exits.
What type of exits did RBC guys get?
how did EVR RX do?
bump
Any insights on MBB placement or success for any of those firms?
Bump for m&a
PJT RSSG: KKR TMT, Apollo, Warburg, Centerbridge, 2 BX
PJT M&A: Apollo, BX Tac Opps, BX PE (Energy), CD&R, Centerbridge, BX Growth, GA, TPG RE, Apax
Might be missing a few
Was PJ RSSG BXPE or other groups at BX?
BX PE
Any insight on UBS?
How about MS Tech (Menlo or NY)?
Lot of MF
Any idea on split between Menlo and NY?
How did CS do?
MS FSG?
