+1 UT is definetly the best of those options, if you can get in. Between the rest of them, they’re all basically equal (besides catholic). They’re all basically in the same tier of large state schools [email protected]
+1 My take - if you went to an ivy league / tier 1 school, you can start leaving off at SA+. SaaSChimp
+1 Whenever someone asks “has anyone ever” the answer is generally yes. It’s a big world out there, don’t be so lacking in imagination WSRaider
+1 Dude like the other guy said, if you're asking this question... just no man, NO!! Associate 1 in RE - Comm
+1 Yes but there's a meaningful discount between large funds and middle market players, even those MM funde with several 10's of billions. Associate 1 in RE - Comm
+1 Take the audit role, and just continue recruiting jic but aim for small boutiques. Your profile isn't good enough for big 6 or the big boutiques like Canaccord. Could aim for CB too, think would be doable. Analyst 1 in PE - Other

+1 Big 4 in Ireland is trash, pay €25k a year .. LOL only interesting FO roles are in Dublin and even at that chronically underpaid. Irishoptimist

+1 Nah, have been on preliminary conversations for 3-4 weeks Intern in S&T - FI
+1 I'm reading a lot of responses that mention affordability being an issue because of myriad factors. how do you all grapple with this? I'm being deliberately open ended and obtuse to not insert my opinion... thebrofessor
+1 I am sorry for your plight, I sincerely hope things turn around, if you ever want to PM me, I will advise in any way I can thebrofessor
+1 As a junior / mid-level, they're non-negotiable and many, many pages of legalese that basically advantage the author (your employer) and disadvantage you (the employee) .... asmith_1
+1 Not wrong but when you roll into a QOZ fund, you’re paying fees (asset management, acquisition, and sometimes staffing reimbursement) then to add insult to injury, fund managers could also lose 20%-40% of your money. Urban Mogul
+1 Gleacher could have sold out since, at peak of relationship (‘21/22). Anyway it’s inevitable their senior rainmaker could jump ship  davani1420
+1 so all Acs out ? i had a TI 3 weeks ago and i thought it was ok but have not heared anything. is it just an email ? Hanswursti187
+1 I would not build a 100 unit mini storage in todays day and age, unless you want to be managing yourself. MonopolyMoney
+1 know someone with R1 alr (I recruited while back its possible... because of networking) anonymousdad
+1 I don't think you need to, but it's a good idea and takes minimal time/money.  asmith_1
+1 Yes but to your point, someone investing in QOZ is looking to offset tax liability and just keep their money safe. Paying fees and also losing money, albeit while deferring taxes, is basically high risk and low reward. Urban Mogul
+1 C.R.E. Shervin
+1 Big city USAFinal year of collegeSingle Anonymous Monkey

+1 Dude, these jobs do not care about you, your wife, or your kid. Do what's best for you and your family.  spudrmonke
+1 Very good comment above. Deal experience is your best asset to make a move. I would however wait 18-24 months before doing so. Associate 3 in IB-M&A
+1 Horrible rep across the street. Some of the individuals at the mid level are nice people but culture starts from the top  Works at Alvarez & Marsal
+1 I'm curious on your approach to language learning - it gets harder as you get older so what have you found most effective? nutmegger189
+1 I’ll answer this in multiple points: first, IB as a training ground for anything besides ability to take shit and work hard has been disproven 1000x. rxconswarr
+1 4 jobs in 2/3 years is a lot and may be your issue, but I'd guess you are including internships so maybe not your problem. Regardless, I wouldn't call your resume "stacked." TechBanking

+1 No ? wuandale33
+1 Fwiw, I agree btw. Why the fuck would you not wanna be covering the stuff that are ripping and repeatedly beat expectations. Like it’s not that difficult and the tailwinds are huge. Analyst 3+ in HF - Other
+1 You are incorrect my young analyst and completely misunderstanding what I’m saying. This all boils down to sales approach vs income approach valuation, and long-term deferred maintenance. That is it. fluffnstuff
+1 I wouldn't be too keen to gun for 1-yr programs as an international student in the american job market as it stands. hutcointraders
+1 So, thing is, you really won't be in a place or position where you'll actually gather much knowledge of things. Also, I would say while the recruiting is very fast nowadays, you shouldn't need to worry as much as you are. usernameladiesman217
+1 I agree. I can imagine some more senior/ more serious people not liking it, but I don’t think anyone I know would go as far as putting the sender on a firm wide blacklist Associate 2 in IB - Cov
+1 Yeah haha my VP won’t like it but my MD will talk to this kid if they have a good resume. Really chill guy who hangs out with young analysts Analyst 2 in IB-M&A

+1 I’m serious! Tough industry to get into. Reminds me a lot of real estate…. Need tons of capital with deep pockets since it’s very capital-intensive. So much marketing spend in a market so saturated. StabilizedYOC
+1 Without US Greencard it would be a tremendous uphill battle to find a firm that sponsors you. Gainone1572

+1 Smurf-obsessed MD, middle aged at least- asking do you like blue as a serious interview question - actually taking that answer as a critical hiring criteria - being so petty while making dad puns Associate 3 in IB - Cov
