Too late to shoot for buyside 2026?
Second year at a BB here. Think I’ve missed out on the train for off cycle 2026? Anything to remedy?

The buy side is no longer the wonderful exit strategy people knew from 3+ years ago. If you’re at a good firm with decent culture I’d recommend staying as an associate and trying to enjoy your life outside of work.
Thanks for your comment but would like to know how so?
No, never too late. Just get in touch with headhunters
