Top RX Consulting Exit Resume Advice?
Question for the wise folks of WSO - I am considering exiting from a top RX Consulting firm. Currently at the ASO level with some great deal experience under my belt. I've included 3 of them that I can walk through well, but had a niche question.
For context, I have 4 YOE. Is it ever okay to include junior year summer or even say senior year fall internship deal experience? I was fortunate enough to work on some pretty cool deals (one at an IB and another at a different RX firm) during my summer internship and subsequent fall internship and was considering adding to the resume but unclear if that's a "no-no" in the industry. I could understand the hesitance if I wanted to include that I went to a prestigious elementary school (jokes) but a bit uncertain on the situation above. This would be recruiting for either IB, PE, Private Credit or basically any other finance / investment related roles. Thanks for the advice as always!
I mean I'd say yeah it's fine to list the intern stuff, as long as they're relevant, legit, and you can speak abt them well. In all honesty, it’s far better to include solid, tangible deal experience from internships than to artificially stretch 3 full-time deals over 4 years imo.
Their relevance and depth matter more than timing, if the internship deals were meaningful (e.g., you contributed to a live process, built materials, did modeling, etc.), and especially if they involved name-brand clients or interesting complexity (e.g., distressed M&A, 363 sales, etc.), then absolutely include them...if you want you could list them under "other deal exp" instead of professional exp alongside your FT stuff, presentation matters.
Also have 4 years of rx co exp at a boutique recruiting for ib currently. Based on my experience the more recent the deal experience the better. Have even been asked in ib interviews to answer strictly on deals in the last 12 months. But I’ve also worked on 14 different deals in the last 4 years so have lots to go from
Really? Was this for EB RX IB / BB IB or MM, because I haven't personally seen firms that put a 12mth cap on what you can talk about
