+1 ___bustedcovenant Managing Director in IB-M&A
+1 The issue is I think he is being 100% serious  midwest_analyst
+1 Yeah, that would be a pretty crazy choice, tbh. If WLB is the priority, then going into Corp Dev and positioning yourself at a company of interest makes more sense. CapTableTriage
+1 Thanks for the insight, really appreciate it. So even if everything was really good, except for that mess up, I can be out of the interview process just like that? wso warrior
+1 There’s always a chance to still be in the running—it can boil down to the good old “airplane test”: can I see myself sitting next to this person on a long flight and enjoying the convo, etc.  CapTableTriage
+1 Started like anyone else and from progressed fairly linearly to what I made this year.  Managing Director in IB - Gen
+1 be friends with the seniors in ur school that are going into banking agingercat
+1 Would also add here - unless you separately hear from HH they are filled, I’d disregard anything you see on WSO. If you ask they will tell you  Analyst 1 in IB - Cov

+1 no idea i'm pretty sure the growth equity funds that are recruiting rn are the most PEish of the growth funds NewConsultingMonkeyW
+1 Is comp still EB level or has that changed post acquisition? Anonymous Monkey
+1 Ultimate Pedigreed Path: Donkey from Shrek
+1 Exactly - dont try to make sense of it. Years ago I was asked what my favorite excel macro was and I verbatim said 'none of them.' Didn't get a follow-up.  CapTableTriage
+1 Am VP at BofA and will be lucky if I get half of this Works at Bank of America Merrill Lynch
+1 Isn't delta 8 kinda sketchy? Be careful folks.  anonymous investor
+1 Not a bad idea at all bluecollarfinanceguy
+1 feralwater tryyuav
+1 No, it simply means what I said - I would be gone on the weekends paying monthly rent.  CapTableTriage
+1 Not op, but just made the jump to RX Co, and for me networking made it much easier, since the interactions are a lot "warmer". Analyst 1 in PE - Growth
+1 congrats on gugg rx Prospect in IB - Gen
+1 Bump FortPill
+1 and regardless of whether you are in a legitimate group or EGRC! roach level bonuses all around at Bank of America! Works at Bank of New York Mellon
+1 Well there's a strong difference between a golf course and a convenience store. If someone is going to a golf course, it's because they've segmented their whole day out to do this. usernameladiesman217
+1 Incoming EVR FT NY M Intern in IB-M&A
+1 What happened for you - did you come home and re-recruit for banking? Did you have a revelation as to what you wanted to do during your travels? Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+1 How do you have time to construct such a work of art? airpat8248
+1 . TBDPEJabroni
+1 Sir, this is a Wendy's. Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+1 This already exists in various forms across the country with the exception of the membership model, which sounds like a bad idea.  CRE
+1 Bump Intern in IB-M&A
+1 Yes, I guess I was trying to get at the nature of the job function/team as comp and location are pretty self explanatory Prospect in IB - Gen
+1 Appreciate the insight. Prospect in IB - Gen
+1 Eastdil employees don’t typically build models from scratch. It’s all templates. Partner in RE - Comm
+1 And fwiw, I was not a nepo hire. I had no prior real estate or finance experience when I joined, and no family or friends in the business. I just rolled the dice on real estate and worked the interview process. Partner in RE - Comm
+1 IB/PE is corporate finance bud ballsinvest
+1 I feel the call to serve. Reallyouthere
+1 bump [email protected]
+1 Are you doing direct lending at one of those funds? anonymousmkey
+1 S+++ - Arizona State University Pro Veritate
+1 Congrats on Oxford viking.monkey
+1 "CP Game" is an insane user name  PokerSlopWars
+1 Probably the second worst business I can think of  PokerSlopWars
+1 180 isn't your problem. 5'8" is.  PokerSlopWars
+1 No. There are always firms that leave spots for off-cycle. Sure, APO might have filled their class, but most MF's end up taking some off-cycle spots a year. Ended up getting my offer on-cycle. Associate 1 in PE - LBOs
+1 when did you got the offer? In similar position, I don't know any places that start background check process yet. FCOJ
+1 Following, am in a very similar position albeit a year or two behind targeting very similar long term goals for similar reasons. Analyst 1 in AM - FI
+1 Would add Diameter to this list. Analyst 1 in AM - FI
+1 what a retarded thing to say... johncena2548
+1 touch grass bro Prospect in Consulting
+1 Welcome to the community! Your expertise in distributed teams, hiring, and scaling operations will definitely add value here. WSO Monkey Bot
+1 Based on the most helpful WSO content, here’s a breakdown of your options and considerations: WSO Monkey Bot
+1 Please please everyone go look at this guy's post history. I promise you it will not be time wasted. moneymaker03
+1 You’re not wrong. A lot of RE investment roles eventually become more about deploying capital and justifying assumptions than true conviction, and that can feel repetitive after a few years. pearl112
+1 AgreeTechnicals wont help you because you wont get interviewsMinumum 3-4 Internships required for a solid firm. So start with Big4 spartacusY
+1 Thanks for the feedback Chimchar, that makes sense. Would you say it’s not worth actively networking or applying until my technicals are solid, even for Big 4 TAS / CF or smaller boutiques? vitamin.v
+1 You would since most students in Canada aren't even Canadian in the elite schools. Good luck! 8'Banana_Stacker'2
+1 I’d put them in a few buckets generally:  1/ invest early stage with intent to acquire, 2/ invest in highly risky or non-core segments, and 3/ don’t invest at all. Paul_Allen_III
+1 I feel like it’s a wash. Go with whichever has the best chance of FT. Even if you don’t want to return, it’s easier to recruit for a job when you have a job. DB has a good reputation, but not on par with Wells or JPM. badger22
+1 Congrats on D.A Davidson akxoisjwn
+1 1000% do it. Everyone wants to do it (myself included) but we’re all scared to do so. You will remember this year for the rest of your life. ibwannabe66
+1 The CFA is irrelevant for what bankers actually do. You'd be better off networking.  Besides, if the interest is in doing transactional work, who not M&A biglaw?  GS under Blankfein
+1 I think Americans take for granted how poorly every aspect of their society is run. UFOinsider
+1 Take your fate into your own hands:  Associate 3 in PE - LBOs
+1 Jobs people, jobs...  professional.form.filler
+1 just do your fucking hirevue man it's not that deep Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+1 Unreal fucking amounts of alpha in this suggestion. This guys knows. Creatine is still extremely underrated for the cognitive benefits.  Raijin
+1 Keep coping buddy. Broker in IB - Cov
+1 More of you need to read the Fountainhead. Mergerz
+1 you think bankers and fund managers have "civilization building" skills? snones
+1 Most Americans have never left their state, let alone the country.  CRE
+1 Shades of Ben Wyatt killing with the accounting firm in parks & rec.... That said, saying "Half day today?" to someone leaving at 8pm always crushed in banking CharlesCheese
+1 NoEquityResearch Ozymandia
+1 Also, do you think what’s happening in the UK politically and economically affects how Oxbridge is perceived long-term?  8'Banana_Stacker'2
+1 2 weeks after the internship ends, you hear your outcome 30% conversion for 2025 Prospect in IB - Gen
+1 You think to yourself “Will I care about this on my death bed?” or “If I got a stage 4 cancer diagnosis tomorrow, is this something I would still do?”  CRE
+1 Can’t speak from experience but have had seniors in the UK defer their offers without much trouble - I imagine it largely depends on the firm - but they had spoken to analysts to get a feel for their options before contact 2MIL.ARR
+1 Bro you need professional help, why are you posting about those schools on Reddit and WSO every two days? Jesus Christ.. Intern in Consulting
+1  Delta/ CAG ( or whatever they go by these days) would be considered more prestigious and elite, here is my breakdown. whiskey6811

+1 TopBoy.-Agreed but a couple things:Why is the fbi blocking state officials from investigating the matter? GameTimeisSaneTime
+1 Admit that I am right that the tires spun while aimed at him. This is factual. Corp_titan
+1 MS Coverage NYCASO 1 > ASO 2 Base : 175K > 225K Bonus: 130K Was told performed top in my class but heard some folks got 150k in other groups ccz8
+1 Interesting take.  By raising prices a nominal amount, the riffraff self select out and you simultaneously offset the reduced foot traffic with higher margins. UFOinsider
+1 this reads ai generated, am i crazy? excuisitebanana
+1 Most MDs carry identification with them.  This argument is DOA in court, sir. UFOinsider
+1 A woman got senselessly murdered by the state and you are desperately trying to Sherlock a rationale for it. Talk about "beneath ridicule."  Comply or die, brother.  CRE
+1 I don't believe you can whole-heartedly say that MFEs do not place some of their students into great roles, especially the better schools. Even some of the bank roles are great too. usernameladiesman217
+1 ive seen enough, raise the defence budget 50% and yell at Raytheon for doing stock buybacks  Maga Marxism is the gift that will deliver fallout power armour trust  TopBoy.-
+1 For a bunch that is so called pro-capitalist, this really is looking like a command economy. 8'Banana_Stacker'2
+1 Man what a buzzkill. Who isn't depressed in January?  kiltedlowlander
+1 read the book kitchen confidential by Anthony Bourain and you have your answer. It is really one of the toughest areas to make money.  betachimp
+1 I think it depends what group you're in. If you're actually in M&A and have deal experience, then I think you'll do fine. But why leave brother? Wells Fargo is paradise.  Works at Wells Fargo and Company
+1 Was there under a year. Used all the BIWS guides to prep. Also helps to know how to build operating models for normal businesses. Associate 1 in PE - Growth
+1 I 100% agree with you. VanillaGorilla
+1 Agree, if you can't handle these types of situations and make the right decision, you shouldn't be in law enforcement. NoEquityResearch
+1 By training, I wasn't referring to pistol training. I don't care about his quick draw reaction skills. I care about his overall law enforcement skills. He's not a sheriff in the wild west. CRE
