Highest Ranked Comments In The Last Year

+1 I’m not sure where you are in terms of life with spouse, house, kids, etc. but if the opportunity is there I’d say do it. You’ll grow more professionally and personally doing something like that on your own. EdMc513
+1 At places like University of Michigan where one top club controls the alumni pipeline it can feel like a gatekeeper, but it still doesn’t decide your outcome by itself. sophiasmith1
+1 It totally sounds like harassment, though for the time being you probably still have no legal "proof".  MMPM
+1 Ditch the MBA for starters. MarcBahamas
+1 Spreading sponsor provided SREOs into specific templates, summarizing thirds or providing a comparison table of the different data points across different reports for the same deal to make sure address, sqft etc. milkyway1420

+1 Trader Joe’s sweet potato gnocchi with butter and sage Sliced cremini mushroom (8 ounces) Pancetta (4 ounces) guyfromct
+1 Off the top of my head, I think Princeton is like the #1 Mfin program in the country. No idea the requirements to get in, but I'd imagine the bar is absurdly high. Same goes for MIT. Substack_Guy
+1 Hey man, it definitely sounds like your antidepressants arent working properly. I think it is time to check in with your psych and therapist. Associate 3 in CorpDev
+1 It’s the nature of LA being spread out and if you’re from the area you know that.. Finding a social circle post-grad, with a demanding job, and no existing friends / family is a tough ask. It’s not an easy city like nyc. Bank Slut
+1 I can’t speak on buyside laterals because I don’t know the process, but I do know it will be significantly easier than doing the reverse (LA, nyc, back to LA). Bank Slut
+1 Just reach out and be normal I’ve managed to connect with b school alums in the C suite at F500s. Just email them explain the connection and say you want to hear about their career and experiences. guyfromct
+1 Numbers? I know a thing or two about ass comp? Works at Bank of America Merrill Lynch

+1 Can't speak on the recruiting opportunities, but I grew up in LA, went to undergrad/grad school on the east coast, and love LA so much more. jCRE_1
+1 I agree so why do you have to be racist. Asian men don’t get dei benefits or white privilege and we don’t go around blaming less privileged groups. user17367363
+1 go through this post. White women and men are by and large over-represented and major beneficiaries of the system including DEI. Look at the JPM report Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+1 Agree, Wells Fargo apparently poached the Ex CS Head of Cov and Advisory (Malcolm P), Ex CS Head of TMT (Brian G), etc. Associate 1 in IB-M&A

+1 unironically the best advice on this thread lmfao dicky
+1 Sheesh. dckogdyioo
+1 You automatically get a 2-year visa if you graduate from any British uni, so a European doing a masters in the UK would have no legal hurdles breaking into London. Analyst 2 in IB - Gen
+1 Brian is an absolute beauty Intern in IB - Gen
+1 This has been done to death, ad nauseam, on this sub (OP, please search in the threads). Developer in RE - Comm saved you from having to do the search, and is 100% correct.  Assist. VP in IB - Gen
+1 Heard back from R1, event on the 19th Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
+1 Pretty sure its not in waves Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
+1 Can confirm. 100 base + 100 bonus guaranteed for analysts. Unsure about assoc comp and above but likely also pretty generous  Intern in Private Credit
+1 -VP1-GS NY-Coverage-$250k base (and no bump)-$225k bonus (~20% stock)-Bucket unknown but assume upper mid-Good year for the group and firm Works at Goldman Sachs
+1 What are your thoughts on number? Seems low for upper mid VP IB, is this the “GS discount”? Analyst 1 in S&T - FI
+1 Better as in more rewarding or better as in objectively better for your career? (Genuinely asking because I can see both sides) Le_Monkey
+1 row 86 right under smith meadows capital markets (LMM $5mm shop in Alabama) you can put BofA (Bulge bracket) And then row 284 prob UBS Row 16 UBS (guarantees) Prospect in IB-M&A

+1 These numbers are very likely inflated, since you’re much more likely to report if you know you have a good stipend dallasnative5887
+1 You're retarded. Even if you assume only white/asians are smart enough to do the job, you'd expect, due to similar intelligence distributions +-2sd, that half the entry level recruits are women. green_duck
+1 Yea, let’s not bring the rankings thing to RE lesbiangirlscout
+1 dude above is retarded. they have waves every month until june. but it does get harder as more months pass no_home_jerome
+1 Just checked CapIQ While the only data I had access to was between 2020-2023, it’s hard to believe a garage band could advise 13 $500mm+ deals with 7 of them being multi-billion dollar ones. anon28474903
+1 Fundraising has become increasingly critical, and I’ve clearly noticed that compensation has moved up materially. Goldenfamily
+1 West Midtown is cool but the traffic is awful. Old 4th Ward/Inman Park/Virginia Highlands/Ansley Park are all great spots.  Midtown has its moments. I'd live there over Buckhead for sure.  CRE

+1 What does the college senior going to a micro search fund know about hedge funds lmao. Go do your homework. Classongrass
+1 GS ficc and equities? Where did you hear that NYCgremlin
+1 It’s likely too late. Try looking for other roles for once they rescind your offer. Intern in IB - Gen
+1 Go abroad, get your health in top shape, have as much fun as possible (although i've personally found life to be way more fun in a T1 city with $ than college but to each their own).  MnIGuy
+1 Returns for these funds are all over the place, hard to find one that’s been consistently outperforming for 3-4 vintages.. But i’d say CIP, EQT, MSIP, Asterion, Ancala are all good names in Europe.  Associate 1 in IB-M&A
+1 If I work with a nepo kid and they are intelligent, hard working, and went through the same process, I generally don't have an issue with it. SearchLookFind

+1 UCL >= Warwick > NUS > Bath Prospect in IB - Gen
+1 I haven’t noticed that, but if that is the case (for senior people) I think it would be a reflection of the composition of the re financing market 20 years ago. therightcoast_
+1 Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's what you need to know about UNC's IB recruiting landscape: Recruiting Clubs and Their Role: WSO Monkey Bot

+1 Wow... what an insightful comment. You could write a book with this sort of writing ability yopierre
+1 just go to barclays, evercore ECM is probably the best among the EBs but a cov role at barc beats it out in exits and optionality. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+1 better pay at WF HL you will get more M&A experience, WF you will likely work on much larger deal. HL's deal size is on the lower millions, but HL's deal count is even greater than GS. Both are great offers Associate 1 in IB-M&A

+1 If I get invited to spd but I’m studying abroad, do you think I can request to do it virtually? hahshshshsh
+1 Citadel GFI offering a structured summer internship in the UK? Or just through "Investment & Trading Intern"? I'm in US Ivy, so please excuse me if this question is trivial. Prospect in S&T - FI
+1 You'll have to complete the full analyst program at the next firm (or else you'll get labeled by some as a "job hopper") but I can assure that this is the right move - especially in this market, these roles aren't easy to datboi1234
+1 Reference an industry you're passionate about! Read up on it and ask them questions to get their opinions on recent trends etc., whether they think something is overhyped. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+1 How would you evaluate this relative to other smaller UMM's (i.e. funds in the ~4 - 8bn range)? Analyst 1 in IB - Gen

+1 Del wallstreetdude123
+1 Pre GFC bankers died for our bonus trevor Jon 11
+1 Mass exodus across entire deal teams, from partners to juniors, even the CIO. Lots of vacancy across the portfolio with properties having sat vacant for years now. RE101

+1 Curious what you mean on the culture front as have heard anecdotally theres been lots of turnover at the junior level Intern in IB-M&A
+1 NYC, good comp and exits if you end up returning full time. Getting return is not as hard as at top places and if you do secure it, you'll have opportunities to recruit full time at top firms woundedfox
+1 Hire a third party accountant to do monthly draws & annual or semi-annual taxes. You control how much they work (and how much you pay them as a result)  CRE

+1 “10 things I hate about you” helped me Jeffery Montenbeauberg
