Curious about this as well if starting as an analyst on the buyside (non-MF) - should I be reaching out to HHs?

 
laka:
What if you're not in an IBD group? Does it make sense to reach out to HH?

Depends. The IB group 2nd years generally give the HHs the email addresses of the 1st years in their groups. So if you're in a non IB group where you don't really have a 2nd year (i.e. most of the capital markets teams which might have 1 analyst each), then it might make sense to reach out to them.

 

Do not reach out to recruiters yourself. I can guarantee you that the recruiters have already reached out to second year analysts in your group to get all of the first year analyst email addresses. Every recruiter reached out to me (I am a second year) for this information and I happily forwarded along the first year analysts’ email addresses.
