Incoming FT New group
I an incoming FT at a BB. A few days ago, I got an email saying that my group is changed due to restructuring and I will be starting at XXXX group. I am excited to work at this BB but not sure what this group does. As far as I understood, it is not a client facing group but I wanted work in a client facing groups and my previous group was client facing. I found an Associate job posting in YYY Group that is similar to what I was going to do in the first place. So, my question is: 1) Do you think I can email HR and ask if YYY group would be open to hire an analyst instead of an Associate? Or just be happy that I still have a job? 2) I will talk to a director in my new group next week. Do you think I should email HR before or after talking to this director? What can I lose if I email HR and ask?
OP here. Both groups are under markets by the way
Also why does this happen? Does it happen frequently? Can it be because of something I did (I didn't talk to anyone recently tho)?
bump
You can ask HR, not a big issue. Worst they will say is no and you will join the other group
Would I lose my offer if the other group isn't interested?
You shouldn't look like you don't like your new group. Don't risk your offer
They’re looking for an Associate not an analyst, the responsibilities and expectations are not the same - unless you think you can do the job and you think that your boss thinks you can do the associate job. It’s a terrible look for them to know you don’t want to be there, and word will spread - would be starting your relationship with new team on terrible footing. Welcome to S&T - this is risk vs reward. You willing to risk damaging ur karma on new desk before starting for the chance to fill in for an AO role?
It's a highly technical group but I don't exactly know if they are looking for an associate or analyst (I don't think they hire analysts). job posting says 2 years of experience but also mostly consists of analyst duties. I think I have the technical skills tho. Would this cause me to lose my offer by any chance tho?
