Seemed like a cool group. I liked most of the people I met there. Not sure about exit opps, doesn't seem phenomenal.

What do you mean by "doesn't seem phenomenal"? Are you talking about the group or the exit opportunities?

I am going to be an SA this summer at CS.

Will going to CS this summer put be in a better position to join a "better" BB? Like GS? Would M&A be a good group to accomplish this?

It will probably torpedo your chances. Its over. No way relevant experience a great firm would help your case. Sorry.

Credit Suisse Mergers and Acquisitions is a group within the investment banking division of the bulge bracket investment bank, Credit Suisse. They focus on Mergers and Acquisitions investment banking.

"Look, you're my best friend, so don't take this the wrong way. In twenty years, if you're still livin' here, comin' over to my house to watch the Patriots games, still workin' construction, I'll fuckin' kill you. That's not a threat, that's a fact.
 

half and half. technicals were a lot more conceptual, making sure you understand the ideas rather than regurgitating guides.

also, you should have a unique why CS and why M&A.

as usual, senior guys are less technical and more fit focused. definitely a collegial/fratty atmosphere from what i saw.

 

I am very shocked they climbed very quickly in Asia too........ I think 3-4 years ago they were nowhere considered a top 5...but in the past 2 years they were top 3 in both equity and M&A......

Guess they got right seniors / key high-profile bankers in Asia is probably an additional reason. Not sure, appreciate insights.
