+1 Slow is smooth, smooth is fast TheDruck
+1 someone feel free to correct me if I'm wrong - but I've spent a bit of time in the activism defence space when I was recruiting (I talked to a few juniors in the space and an activist as well). Prospect in RE - Comm
+1 She looks like if Gru and Gollum had a daughter lol plzgivemeajob
+1 From what I’m seeing, most PE shops still feel okay about fundamentals (bookings quality, net retention, mission-critical SaaS), but there’s definitely more scrutiny on growth durability vs. huanlamunov
+1 Hey Samantha, you’ve got some solid early experience, especially with the Spring Capital Raising internship and the RBC externship — that’s already better than most undergrad resumes from non-target schools. bobybryan
+1 Well now nobody is going to the US lol GL to the Ivey / QComm daddys money nepo crowd competing with UW / WLU kids walking in with OTPP, OMERS, HOOPP, and Onex / Altas / Burgundy co-ops already on the résumé. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+1 Public and private aren’t fully decoupled, but the linkage depends on where you sit in the market. jahrgang92
+1 I think the hate is less about leverage or opacity per se and more about proximity. jahrgang92
+1 I think this fits with what you’re describing about things deteriorating slowly rather than breaking all at once. jahrgang92
+1 I think you lots need to fucking realize the extent to which Trump has been mentioned in the files, more than Harry Potter in the all the books combined. newbiebanker
+1 Let me try stevesmith112233
+1 The examples you’re using technically prove the point, but they’re kind of egregious. Analyst 1 in IB - Gen

+1 Not sure if you're re to this, but they've been raising rescue pref for their own deals. Target for this 1,400-unit portfolio was $39M, out of which $14M would be paydowns, $12M for rate caps etc. hitsamty

+1 Ce qui rend cette approche particulièrement convaincante, c'est la transformation de l'externalisation, d'un pari risqué en un processus bien plus structuré. RogerWilliams
+1 For IB its HV-->SD (No R1s) for everyone. Dont know about CB GShlaker
+1 C'est beaucoup plus fréquent qu'on ne le pense, sur tout ap rès une promotion. RogerWilliams
+1 Honnêtement, presque personne ne reste concentré 12 heures d'affilée, même dans le secteur bancaire. Ce qu'on apprend à faire, c'est à enchaîner les périodes de concentration intense et à minimiser les pertes de temps. RogerWilliams
+1 There’s a lot of truth in that, even if the wording is a bit blunt. Most people confuse being “busy” with doing deep thinking, when they’re really not the same thing at all. RogerWilliams
+1 On parle souvent de WP Carey différemment des postes classiques en banque d'investissement ou en private equity, car il s'agit davantage d'une REIT (société d'investissement immobilier cotée) avec une orientation opération RogerWilliams

+1 RBC Calgary, BMO Metals and Mining Associate 1 in IB - Cov
+1 I'd personally go to Baylor, unless ur going to do sports TCU isn't worth it (obviously scholarships and costs factor in). I'd rather live in Waco than Fort Worth, but I also would never want to live in the DFW. Intern in IB - Gen
+1 I am not talking avout already getting displaced. But if you have GPT enterprise - it can already create ppt and xls, slow and bad at this stage but it will get a lot better.  Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+1 Should’ve stated that I was top bucket and have been in the seat for 3 years. But yes it’s a good gig overall  Works at Wells Fargo and Company

+1 Buddy of mine did his analyst stint at Barclays industrials...good group, good deal flow, good reps, good exits (he went to MF), but awful hours. He worked every weekend including most saturdays Works at Goldman Sachs
+1 This is good advice. You will need to network and give your sales pitch.  MeltedIceCube
+1 Anybody hear back from SD yesterday/today? SomeCaliberTalent_IB

+1 BMO Metals & Mining Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+1 no, become a janitor instead (hard to make physical AI to replace janitors vs excel execution monkey AIs for bankers) FingerBlasterBoy2004
+1 Why cant they just hire someone in India to ts is how i feel for the 90% of my work that an illiterate chimpanzee could do FingerBlasterBoy2004
+1 BLUF: shoot for M7/T15 straight out of undergrad. ER will be unlikely, no matter what. That said, CBS' value investing program and HSW will give you the best odds at landing a seat. Intern in Consulting
+1 Oh my buddy is a US citizen he just would like to study abroad for the experience and it helps that Cambridge has one of the top RE programs in the world. Donkey from Shrek

+1 training week = get drunk with your analyst class after zoning out during every compliance deck, barely make it back to your shoebox apartment at 2am, and drag yourself out of bed and do it all over again the next day. Engineer in S&T - Other
+1 Santander has been making notable moves recently, particularly with their investment in talent. For example, they have hired numerous senior Credit Suisse bankers and even entire teams, as reported by Bloomberg. WSO Monkey Bot

+1 intern summer to full timeNetworking but more to understand the firm, go to info sessions, etc. not like I need 3 people from the office to refer me. I think I actually might have had 0 referrals. Analyst 1 in IB-M&A

+1 Dammit Mike, again? Sarvey Hecter
+1 You never needed to be recruiting for finance anyway man. Your family should connect you with someone whose business you can learn. At your level of family income you should have a “meetings” job. johnny-mnemonic
