BUMP.. anyone?
I think it depends on how good you can network your way out of research. But on a sidetrack point, I'm starting to realize no one is ever truly happy with their work. Even in the front office, people always want "bigger & better things." I guess its a never ending cycle = /
lol, this is the same thing that I have noticed. No one is ever happy, research guys wanting to go to S&T or banking or buyside, S&T guys wanting to move around to other teams because they are not happy with their team or role or bank. People in New York wanting to move to London. People in London wanting to move back to New York; while people from London would love to move to New York, etc.
^^^Almost every one I know in banking fits under that category.
I don't know, maybe it has something to do with the industry, anyone?

depends on what you research.
if you are in credit research, it is very common, especially if you do HY/distressed research. seen plenty of HY/distressed bond/loan sellside research ppl/desk analysts come to trading in the same or different BB. you will definitely build network with traders as research analyst, and you know your stuff very well.
if you are in securitized product research (mortgage + other ABS), it is common to move into trading too.
the incoming HY/distressed credit traders spend 3months to 1yr in research anyway...
if you are in eq research, i don't think it is common to move to cash equity trading...i don't think a lot of ER ppl really want to move to cash trading anyway though...
ppl in fx, commodities, and rates research are fairly experienced to begin with, i can definitely see them move into trading or hedge funds.
Thanks, Appreciate it. Yea I agree nobody is ever content with anything, including me.
I am going to do a rotation in 2 different desks in the research division. Does anyone know how the hours in this division are?
Thanks
