Highest Ranked Comments In The Last Year

+1 Go touch some grass kid californiakid2003
+1 the only leverage in IB is your ability to walk away  Associate 2 in IB - Gen
+1 Congrats on UBS Tech! But no seriously, you will be fine. If people from consulting can do fine and get promoted, someone even in a banking team with no deals should have more than enough required technical knowledge. Analyst 2 in IB - Gen
+1 . Investment Analyst in IB - Gen
+1 Ty sir! Investment Analyst in IB - Gen
+1 Nothing like an early afternoon round on a Friday WMjockey
+1 Based on the most helpful WSO content, Michigan Ross offers several standout features that make it a compelling choice for students pursuing careers in finance, including equity research: WSO Monkey Bot
+1 Second this. Shit gets you ripped  mn-hopeful
+1 I think in 5+ years we could see some real headwinds for younger analysts/associates who recently have entered the space or are going to. VP in PE - Other
+1 situation like this is happening every day for thousands of men in PE, banking, and consulting. I had no idea that it also happens if sexes are reversed. Kevin25
+1 bro really cooked in here, gotta say a good list ! foreverishiii17
+1 Haven't applied to masters, but from a purely career point of view, would it be worth taking the FT and targeting an internal transfer / secondment to Europe, since you're set on leaving HK anyway? agudeza
+1 phillyboyFacts:  GS under Blankfein
+1 Ok you are generalizing one client dinner when in reality it is several + per diem on the road. But agree when you do the math on a transaction it comes out to accretive anon35om
+1 I've been loving the BUM Essential Preworkout Sour Watermelon flavor. Goes down easy, makes me feel absolutely insane in the best way.  Fast and Fiduciary
+1 Another vote for a small developer/operator. None of bureaucracy, rinse-and-repeat IC memos, investor reporting, or super defined and siloed roles. Developer in RE - Comm
+1 lucky / successful on a cold application. I needed to compensate for my lack of outstanding academic performance and non-target status, so I included full-fledged investment memos as part of my application.  FraccDaddy
+1 Stay there  Associate 2 in IB - Gen
+1 Thank you -- super helpful and agreed, but 17 years too late unfortunately.  jackofalltrades
+1 You’ll be fine technically, the job is not that hard to be fair (unless you’re doing infra modelling then you need proper experience). Associate 1 in PE - LBOs
+1 ask the school, like yesterday.  hutcointraders
+1 There are quite a few solid ones. Don't want to Dox myself by naming them becasue they are clients and a few are under the radar. QueefLatifah69
+1 Thanks for your response, I do agree with you. AIbubble
+1 Depends what level you come in as. I came in post MBA with ~3-5 years of experience in an industry that I now cover in my consulting practice. Narrowing down to functional scope has been hard. Business School in CorpStrat
+1 Discern what current pod positioning is and do the opposite.  thisisanexampleofausername
+1 Some study abroad programs will let you leave early if you get an internship, and in my experience consulting firms (unlike banks) will generally let you push start dates if you’re still studying abroad. fettywacc
+1 No they don't, the supply inflation that ongoing is due to inelastic demand for energy inputs, a 50-100bps hike isn't going to change that demand much. jarstar1
+1 Congrats on UBS loudest_safe
+1 I hate playing politics, so having the chance of the offering firm hear I was interviewing elsewhere just puts me in an uncomfortable position that I wanted to avoid. Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+1 Has UBS Tech or M&T seen any traction this year? Worth interviewing? Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
+1 Not an ASO, but firm has Q1 YE / bonuses paid ~June  Principal in PE - Other
+1 Do you go to Cornell? If so, when? I graduated this year and was in multiple of the top finance clubs and saw four recruitment cycles. Intern in IB - Cov
+1 Big news for the unemployed!  VP in PE - LBOs
+1 All I can say is you sound too young and too naive to be able to fully appreciate the gargantuan task that your potential CIO has in front of him. Benson Says
+1 I lowkey see this happen a lot Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+1 Damn that means Smoke Frog had a chance too Analyst 2 in IB - Cov
+1 The way people actually do this is they rely on experience and intuition and they speak to people in the market. Usually one person discovers something and it spreads through word of mouth. nutmegger189
+1 Not long if they liked it and are actually looking to fill seat quickly TBD if neutral on case and can afford to wait and see Very long if they didn’t like it It’s very straightforward Benson Says
+1 It’s not complicated, just don’t beat around the bush. Say you’ve had a wonderful experience and have gained incredible mentors but you think this change will be best for your personal development . Prospect in IB - Cov
+1 Recent MIT MSRED grad, feel free to ping.  LineofCredit
+1 Coming from IB, you already know the deal mechanics, but SMB financials are an absolute mess compared to corporate/public files. Hanlon
+1 Again, you need to re-read what i wrote. I am fully aware what you are saying and I actually agree with you; I am just pointing out that my question was not being answered by your comments. Investment Analyst in HF - EquityHedge
+1 I appreciate all your comments, but again most of you do not reflect what I have asked.  Investment Analyst in HF - EquityHedge
+1 When I recruited IBVine was free, know they’ve revamped it but generally would say yes it’s worth is. Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
+1 ^in similar boat - been in the VP seat for a few years now and both myself / other mid levels at my firm are sort of hanging around the hoop, seeing if performance can turn a corner / carry will be worth something. Associate 3 in PE - LBOs
+1 I’m moreso referring to the drink. However, have used the preworkout in the past and it was my go to preworkout for lifting. Used to take their stim preworkout when studying. mn-hopeful
+1 But for flavors, my go to is blackberry lemonade and black cherry vanilla. Tigers blood is also p good  mn-hopeful
+1 Just use Claude...Free guides will be more than enough...If you wanna get cute there is always a way back in time ;) Investment Analyst in HF - Event
+1 Awesome, thanks for the recs. Dr. Rahma Dikhinmahas
+1 Stay and bring deal volume to the space seekinthealpha1
+1 I would have to start from zero again in terms of building a reputation and relationships with my team, and for what... just to have a better name on my resume? It didn't seem worth it. Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+1 forgot to mention - when I brought up biotech hedge funds and VC, he said he was fine with it and it was his “workaround” - bc those roles don’t load debt on a company Anonymous Monkey
+1 Bro everyone has Raya but no one ends up actually going on a date with and being in a relationship with celebrities. Besides most of the girls on Raya are just regular hot girls these days Analyst 2 in IB-M&A
+1 I can assure you that it is squarely within the hours range of the notorious "sweatshop" groups frequently mentioned on this website. Associate 3 in PE - LBOs
+1 I think I'll use his methodology when discussing how I selected the exit cap rate in my next IC meeting. Good stuff Hardo Intern
+1 If your net worth is going to increase nearly 150K in 5-6 months, then it seems like you make enough to eat the additional rent. On_The_Edge
+1 110 hours 2 weeks out of the month. Crazy every deal have no analyst or departing analyst. Associate turnover is incredibly high. True sweaty shop. Shitty paid for juniors, senior pay is fine. VP in IB - Gen
+1 Anyone have info on Pickering Energy Partners? They have an analyst opening but it seems like their base is 85-95k and Bonus is 0-20k on Glassdoor?   Prospect in Non-profit
+1 I can't tell whether this is a joke post or I am that behind the times VP in HF - Other
+1 I swear they are representing every sell side right now. YesIAmWHO
+1 How long after group pref forms do interviews get sent out do you think? Gheowghwourhg388
+1 If yerba is A tier, I'd put matcha in at least B tier. I mean plain matcha tea, not matcha lattes with blueberry lavender foam added. It has caffeine content on par with coffee, but with the vitamins of normal green tea. On_The_Edge
+1 Issue being you need to fundraise to even pay your salary. Based on the question what is market value for a $30m HF with internal capital answer would be $0 as they cant afford to pay you. Analyst 3+ in HF - EquityHedge
+1 Vibe code an app instead Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+1 Any idea on comp for an Associate role on the Net Lease team? Is there a big variance between teams under the Real Assets umbrella or is it all pretty similar? Financial Analyst 2.5
+1 I would lean junior spring. Lots of study abroad programs that I know of ended before internships began, so I'm sure there is at least a few options for you. UnknownChimp5
+1 I’ll take a shot in the dark, if you’re experience is broad working in a product group with a lot of different industries might make sense, but mostly just trying to get the ball rolling in this topic as I’m curious too tfgf
+1 Sure, in 5+ years is that possible. But it would be no different for CLOs than any other sector, whether in finance (IB, PE, HF, PC, etc), or any other white collar profession (law, consulting, corp jobs). Managing Director in AM - FI
+1 where is the elite bulge bracket bank RBC? simbarawr264
+1 My firm was 2 weeks to 1R and 3 weeks to SD. Other firms were 4 weeks to 1R and 6-7 weeks to SD. big_dawg
+1 Relevant to several posters above - reminder that the trifecta of good WLB, high pay, and career track role from associate+ does not exist. Pick 2 at best.  SaaSChimp
+1 Bold move to continue with the process when you’d have to work with freaks like that guy Associate 1 in IB - Gen
+1 Can't see your CV for some reason, but read that you did a restructuring internship before plus have ESCP.  Associate 1 in ER
+1 Agree with this 100%! chasejames677
+1 Vetted list! One company that truly belongs here is Junkies Coder junkies coder
+1 Analyst here You’re fine, don’t sweat it. The bank already cut intern class sizes, the offer is really yours to lose Analyst 3+ in Risk Mnmgt
+1 I bet he is insecure with what you do babe. It's just a job btw  FinanceGirlieee
+1 Yes Europeans aren't even considered real people until they have a masters. nutmegger189
+1 The alternative for her is likely hillbilly Joe rogan fans with a collective IQ of maybe 86 It’s a tough world  TopBoy.-
+1 Generally we don't hire those who aren't real people yes. This is an extremely established thing, I'm not sure why you're surprised by it. Every European I've ever spoken to knows this deal nutmegger189
+1 Comment above is a slight exaggeration. It's possible but just not very likely. Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
+1 This makes no sense tbh Amazon Prime
+1 Heart attack speedrun tier list Inside doesn't matter
+1 Its dripping with AI  Principal in HF - Event
+1 Nah its better to do a MiF in London after. The only bachelor students getting SAs now are those who got top springs, or go to lse/oxbridge... Degree inflation is real asf. Tough to get anything otherwise Business School in IB - Cov
+1 All of my back office has a master degree, if you are in Continental Europe, you will always need to do a master and 2-3 competitive internships at least, with most of them barely converting unless it is a BB or a small bo Associate 1 in IB - Cov
+1 There's actually a very logical reason that most of the young entrepreneurs you've met are tall. Angus Macgyver
+1 I wear a suit with this exact same fabric - it looks closer to navy in hand  I think because the model is wearing a black shirt the blazer looks darker than it is Analyst 1 in AM - FI
+1 Worth taking the GMAT senior year or summer after college if you think you’ll apply to b-school at some point (harder to do once work starts). ctrl-alt-delete123
+1 OFFERGOBLIN Rabbit
+1 It's a Vitale Barberis wool - their suits tend to look slightly 'shinier' (in a good way imo) hence they look slightly darker, especially in excess light or like the model in the photos, although the black shirt probably m unders
+1 best decision i did for both personal life and professional life GS under Blankfein
+1 Congrats on Truist LBOnlyFans
+1 The basic gist, I believe, is that he had investors invest at one value, then sent it to a seperate fund/cashout at a different value and pocketed the difference. CPMA's15
+1 Just choose a program that ends in April or May, that's what I did; I'd estimate like half of my intern class studied abroad. Intern in Consulting
+1 Has anyone heard back yet?  fin_88
+1 UChicago Pro Veritate
+1 How wealthy are you? Pro Veritate
+1 Sorry I meant people from the Berkadias and CBREs of the world talking down on Arbor but I appreciate the color and response. I know what you are getting at.  Associate 2 in RE - Comm
+1 Appreciate the response. I used to work at a debt firm who did a lot of MF along with other assets so that's fine with me. Associate 2 in RE - Comm
