+1 Honestly, both are amazing schools, so there’s no “bad” decision here. But saving your family nearly $500k is a huge factor and something you shouldn’t ignore. Divyanshu
+1 Not direct experience but have looked at deals with them. I would say the impression is not of particularly arrogant persons - clearly relatively speaking, we’re still talking about PE AND French people… swiss_monkey

+1 I think they would be more impressed with what you can do for them with everything you've achieved (go to nice places, shopping or what not) and that will be different to most other grads in different fields who may SA_008
+1 It's not a valid reaction. You women need a spine. Constantly placating everyone's feelings. He is a clown. Coconut1983

+1 Dr. Rahma DikhinmahasThe job is attractive for a few reasons, but high pay is a big reason. Works at Citigroup
+1 More like 15+ years. These businesses were already on their second or third PE turn in my analyst days! SOFRsoGood
+1 Said already, but tough WLB given the strategy. They also want you out in Westport which is tough Sal89
+1 Seems like consensus is to wait for the VP promote. Would this change if the path to the VP title was much longer? Associate 1 in PE - LBOs
+1 The Adventures in Commercial Real Estate Accelerator is the best one in my opinion. Covers everything. Around $600 I believe for the base package. Financial Analyst 2.5
+1 ASO 0s at JEF are still included in the Analyst pool in the eyes of HR. So you’re still on the summer bonus cycle, no clawback if you leave. Clawbacks only kick in once you hit ASO Stub one year after ASO 0.  Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+1 There is still an IB team, above people saying Kasey is MD are wrong - he left in 2019. Team is mostly ex-GS Calgary. Used to be led by Ken Davis who now runs Barclays, not sure who runs it now. Associate 2 in IB - CB

+1 useless peanunt
+1 I would try and downplay your secondaries experience as much as possible (even though it's more akin to public market is some ways), at least with HHs. Associate 3 in PE - Other
+1 Worst comments section ever. Clearly a joke - and based on the reaction, clearly quite funny Prospect in IB - Gen

+1 Commercial towing is absolutely popping off right now. Fastest I’ve seen PE activity pickup in a 6 month period ever for a specific sector loud_bathroom

+1 Actually reaching out with genuine interest / intent to build a relationship (having great questions that show you've done your research) vs. having really generic conversations that lead you nowhere. Intern in IB-M&A

+1 As a ubs employee, can you move ubs lower please? Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+1 Why would businesses being significantly more sophisticated mean there's alpha in a segment? Honest question, because typically it's the opposite. kuf135

+1 Prospect in IB - CovBump Bump aintnowaygng
+1 Stop seeking validation from others. You don't need it. Isaiah_53_5 💎🙌💎🙌💎
+1 I’d separate “AI replacing analysts” from “AI giving banks an excuse to hire fewer analysts.” The second one is already happening faster than the first. The analyst job is not disappearing tomorrow. Ex-consultant in Tech
+1 Woahhhhhhhh buddy, don't jump to consulting just yet.  Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
