Like the title says, i'm currently an MBA associate in a coverage group, have been on the desk about 8 months. Always wanted to be in buyside seat and knew the best way to make that happen was likely through IB given my unconventional background, so it was always the conduit to get me there.
Have done a lot of networking with BD at a bunch of the pod shops and headhunters and anecdotally have been told that not as many seats were opening up as expected for whatever reason. Touched base with a bd at one of the pod shops who said they were actually looking for an IB associate to join a PM's team and is setting me up for initial calls (I think with another person on the BD team first) - am knew to the HF interview process so was wondering if there's any best advice for navigating the process / this pivot from IB to L/S equity that any of you can share or wish you knew back when you were making the transition?
I have done the research, know my story, but just unsure what to expect at each level or even how this process goes so any anecdotes are greatly appreciated.
Thank you all!
Business development role at pod? Or investing?
Sorry, this is for an investing role
