here's a question - there's this guy who was a GS analyst then went to Francisco for 2 years for an associate. after that, went back to GS as an associate as well for another couple years... puzzles me as to why GS seemed to neglect that experience all together? i've always thought FP was top as well on the buyside but don't get why a BB would totally discount that buyside experience when someone goes bank to banking
