+1 Morgan Stanley or Nomura? panda-123.

+1 stockbondanalystThanks ! PM in HF - EquityHedge
+1 Del coffeedrinkinghardo
+1 Yeah I think that’s a good reason if it was a smaller specialized coverage/product group. You can just say they weren’t looking to bring someone on FT because of slow deal flow or something. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+1 Know someone with top MF offer w below a 3.6 Incoming Analyst in IB - Cov

+1 “Disdain among nyc financiers” Go back to Jeffery Epstein’s Wikipedia and get your AP world history assignment turned in rooseveltfan
+1 Thanks! I’m there for the Associate Manager level (One level above Analyst). The director is traveling that’s why they are having the delay. So far: Investment Analyst in IB-M&A
+1 Internal transfer with L1 visa is the only viable way in this regime. MBA is totally useless for S&T, and getting a job as international student is hard as fxxk.  Associate 2 in S&T - FI
+1 S2000 a2z93
+1 Go for a major in a field that you’re interested and competent in. Meet your professors and other students, try to keep in touch where it makes sense. fiscality201

+1 Elite move to ask for pms while posting anonymously. Sbed CheetahsInCities
+1 PCA at some banks (esp top practices) is actually as sweaty if not more sweaty than M&A, so be careful - MM PCA could be better but it’s a lot of shit assets / zombie funds that EVR/PJT won’t touch Intern in IB-M&A
+1 Got it, thanks. For avoidance of doubt we're talking about One Rock (not Veritas). Associate 3 in PE - LBOs
+1 When running a business it makes sense to focus on the target customer! Sounds like you're not the target customer! Works at Citadel Investment Group
+1 ANL1 top bucket last year was $70k. What is it this year with better fees across the board - 80k? can mid-bucket be 65-70? Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
+1 Associate would be worthwhile; analyst isn’t (gives no credit for your banking stint and only need to stay 1 more year to get associate instead). SaaSChimp
+1 Like I said, LevFin is fringe IB. Most of their deals / work don't require any modeling and yes they do no left leads. Even there, next to no M&A financings either.  Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+1 no ones cares about poker rly. you ain’t at a QT prop shop like SIG. Just network and be FILO for S&T and you’ll get return abob
+1 You're just "sanitizing" how the post was said. They could've said it in a more mature way instead of texting in all caps like I did something wrong to them. sarakennedy.1457
+1 Well C-PACE is paid through a tax assessment so.... it will operated exactly as any other tax forclosure.  ioncewenttoschool
+1 Noted. Sleeping on it. Will update to “PWP (ex-Piper)” in the morning for clarity. bawstin
+1 I like the Rolex on 5th Ave. I got a sub (with date) there as my first watch and the wait was like a month? The Wempe nearby is also pretty solid. Associate 2 in PE - Other
+1 THL is also doing terribly performance wise. Friend there said last fund is fourth quartile. It's also definitionally a JAMMBO firm. Would not want to work there over most growing or well-performing funds. Associate 1 in PE - LBOs
+1 You’ve got three options:  We see rent growth and it’s find. Rates come down  pudding
+1 Analyst 1 in IB - Gen serendipity123
+1 There’s more to life than IB. Plus a lot of people commenting point out that Stern gatekeeps their connections to freshmen that get into clubs, but that could also be a similar situation in McIntire. arossi11637
+1 just got into a MF (non-acquisitions tho) and I had a sub-3.0 GPA from a non-target. it’s uncommon but possible depending on how intentional you are with your work exp/breaking into certain roles and learning key skills. Analyst 3+ in RE - Other
+1 DCF against recovery and see risks that might impact that recovery  GS under Blankfein
+1 My experience might be different - I was a sell-side rates strategist. There was a wave of rates pod hiring in 2021-2024 and I interviewed with many pods. To be hired by a PM you’d have to be useful in some way. Research Analyst in HF - RelVal
+1 Might be hard to hear, but if you're not getting returns, normally it means you're not performing that well. nutmegger189

+1 Word is TD hit up Kent Ferguson to run energy  Executive Director in IB - Cov
+1 They do crush it in the A&D space so great pickup for Evercore. You will get worked but at least with EB comp now. Associate 2 in IB - Gen

+1 Focus on getting a return offer first Intern in IB - Cov
+1 incoming at a&m. could you please elaborate? also, would be grateful if you could give advice on being a top analyst and beyond, etc. how to get staffed on more cases? Prospect in IB - Gen
+1 Probably IB, always easier to convince someone to hire you when you're doing the job responsibilities already so can hit the ground running. WF CB to IB is do-able but riskier IMO VP in PE - LBOs
+1 I understand per capita quite well and better than you, despite not going to any of these schools, which is why I didn’t disagree on your point about Sloan and Wharton. Pay better attention. arossi11637
+1 Culture: Barclays, Piper Sandler, Morgan Stanley, and RBC(In general, most Houston groups have a Southern/fratty/warm(er) culture, but I think the four I noted are widely considered the best) Anonymous Monkey
+1 Golden Cinderblock was S tier Antigue 107
+1 Exact same way you'd answer a why us, but instead of "I spoke to X" you say "I researched X". This will also require you to do research on why that firm.  StandardHardo

+1 Not consulting but I worked at a big name BB in M&A and the mediocrity was rife Really wasn't what I was expecting, some questionable talent that really shouldn't have had a look-in but alas Prospect in IB - Gen
+1 Oil is formed from prehistoric microorganisms.  thisisanexampleofausername

+1 This is retarded SOFRsoGood
+1 Northeastern has IB co-ops at RJ Tech & Services Boston, PS (Public Finance), Alantra, Scotia, and GS (believe its NFP Healthcare though) to name a few. Bunch of IB boutiques as well like Peak, Bowen, Alkali. Prospect in IB - Cov
+1 Nothing here Prospect in IB-M&A

+1 I mean yeah its appropriate. You're generally finishing what may have been a fun weekend to start being chained to your desk for the next 5 days. PaulAllenIsInLondon
+1 Just recruited SA27. I found alumni connections vs non alumni connections to have much less of a difference than people claim here once you actually get them on the phone. Intern in PE - LBOs
+1 Just anecdotally but its funny to me how generally of MBB, people at McKinsey have been the ones to generally always impress me.  PaulAllenIsInLondon

+1 This is helpful - I’m not OP but considering a role and would love to hear your/others thoughts more generally on JPM’s multi-manager program vs GS XIG for example. Associate 2 in AM - Other
+1 Congrats on BoFA! Consultant in Consulting
+1 Kind of depends on what you want to do and what’s happening in the world. Bank deals are really straight forward once you understand the language but private equity is not buying banks. stephen4056

+1 This is me right now. Working on making the jump by doing my first deal off the side of my desk. My nights are shot bc I am working on my side business and weekends I take Saturday off. Right back to work Sunday night. pudding
