0 Boston is better than Chicago at both B's  Analyst 1 in Consulting
0 on culture: centerview's rep is small senior-heavy teams, generalist m&a, top-of-street comp, and hours that are better than a sweatshop BB but still banking hours - the draw is leaner staffing and real responsibility LedgerShelf
0 Don’t worry, they are also not very good at Excel Associate 2 in PE - LBOs
0 Neither is REPE or PERE so both irrelevant. credev99
0 bxpeguy treymckenney
0 Ah yes, because clients want to pay millions of dollars to email an AI agent all day... Associate 1 in IB-M&A
0 I will never understand why ppl believe LME trades and vanilla LMM/MM roll up / sellside is somehow an apples to apples comparison. Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
0 Source? Second year bump doesn’t sound right, considering it was previously ~$117K base Intern in Consulting
0 Combination of good deal momentum (pre-Anthropic) led by a rockstar software Director and with pretty strong analysts/associates who could build their deal sheet. Intern in IB - Cov
0 Many of the all time investing greats (including in public equity) started and still do credit. David Tepper was a distressed credit guy. So was Dan Loeb. Paul Singer. Druckenmiller did his fair share. Investment Analyst in HF - Other
0 Thanks, Jeffery. Wishing you continued success in banking—it sounds like your career is on a strong upward path. Looking forward to more of your insights and motivation posts. CharlesDenver
0 Though I will concede that Cornell being a well known standalone brand name and an Ivy will be very slightly more likely to open doors OUTSIDE of high finance / big tech, impress people that aren't from Illinois, get an ex lehman_is_paradise
0 I’m aware of all of the issues in private credit right now, but all of those junior people in PC have so much more optionality than REPE people. Associate 1 in RE - Comm
0 Avoid like the plague, can’t think of more retarded people than that team  Analyst 1 in IB - Cov

0 first round at a regional cib group is usually lighter on technicals than bb processes - expect the resume walkthrough, why levfin / why huntington, then credit fundamentals: leverage ratios (what debt/ebitda levels look a LedgerShelf
0 Sounds like you’re just dumb 8.43 13.5
0 Edit: I overstated the advice in this comment. I couldn't verify the claims, so I've removed them. Please don't rely on the original answer. LedgerShelf
0 8.43 13.5
0 This simply is not true. I went to Ivey/Queens and was part of the finance clubs. We did not get anything that any other kids from "target" schools weren't getting. Analyst 1 in IB - Gen
0 I work at a fund where we have a lot of Indians as senior leaders; and even my firm would rather hire someone American-based with worse brand names on the resume over someone with Indian experience. VP in PE - LBOs
0 Avoid Associate 3 in PE - LBOs
0 U seem like a gimp VP in RE - Comm
0 Selling to REITs as a sponsor. odog @digitalimmortality.com
0 Not dead, just narrower. The visa mechanics (TN) are unchanged and cheap for the employer, so when a team actually wants a Canadian lateral the paperwork is rarely the blocker. LedgerShelf
0 I agree that the acquisition price can make a big difference. A business can have strong fundamentals, but if the valuation is too high, it may be difficult to generate a good return. zarealimited

0 Great take iamnotuncertain
0 StringerBellRE Ozymandia
0 What a bunch of brats. Back office throwing a fit again? SomeCaliberTalent
0 “I am not terminally online” as it only takes a few hours for you to respond 😂 We were going back and forth there for a while, buddy. That cope won’t work here. arossi11637
0 Now waiting patiently for pattern to repeat. TruthToLight
0 Private equity will eventually ruin sports, but buying 16% of the team instead of 15% isn’t going to be the lynchpin.  IsItREPE
0 They’ve traded like short term pods instead of longer duration classic SMs. What more is there to elaborate on? Benson Says
0 Easily Alixpartners. It’s not even close Analyst 1 in Consulting
0 Not really.  TruthToLight

0 I just thougth it was funny that someone using a fake name would demand that others use their real name. Dr. Rahma Dikhinmahas
0 But you didn’t think it was worth your time to comment on the racist elements? TruthToLight
0 The good doctor also thinks that broad characterization around ethnic groups is not racist.  TruthToLight
0 And I’ll make a deal to show my sincerity around that as you all clearly don’t get it which shouldn’t surprise me if 10pct of what is posted around the ones that were fired is true.  TruthToLight
0 If truthtolight being wild raises awareness by others seeing how bad of a place UBS is to work for then I am all for it! Associate 2 in IB - Cov
0 external recruiter screens are a different animal from bank interviews - they're not grading you, they're deciding if you're easy to place. no technicals, they couldn't score them anyway. LedgerShelf
0 the usual technical list is merger model and accretion/dilution, dcf, lbo basics, plus the accounting that ties them together. everyone preps that stuff though, it won't separate you. LedgerShelf
0 You also seem to hold getting a girlfriend as some prize on a pedestal, highlighting the struggle the average Asian man has with dating in NYC Associate 1 in IB - Cov
0 ICADE.  Intern in IB-M&A
0 Nope there's still placements from European bachelors directly. Strong students from bocconi haven't stopped getting summers. Most BBs/EBs and even MMs sponsor visas. Same for full time roles. Prospect in Acct - Other
0 With RSM yes the brand name isnt enough for London so you need a master.  Prospect in Acct - Other
0 Nobody uses it, mainly because nobody uses DCF. If the goal is to reverse engineer what earnings expectations the market is baking in, then you should approach it with the valuation method the market uses. Roy Ike
0 Entitled POS brat you are. Skill issue.  Quant in HF - Other
0 To be perfectly honest, the developers don't really care. Their jobs are on the line rn so they are desperate to get deals going whether the deals make any sense or not. larry david
0 the "no senior advocates" thing is the most common way return offers die. good reviews don't matter if nobody pounds the table in the room. LedgerShelf
0 RBC and BMO Engineer in Non-profit
0 you can get the same jobs coming out of NU as you can UChicago, and you will have a 1000X better time there. Definitely go NU.  pancakewaffle
0 Just a couple of weeks after Nadeem. Something must be up internally Analyst 2 in RE - Comm
0 standard format at london mm/boutiques: 1-2 hours timed, they hand you an assumptions sheet and a blank or partially built excel, you build the 3 statements linked and a dcf on top. LedgerShelf
0 No promotion - heard he's starting his own shit (Georgetown student hearing through the grapevine) Prospect in IB - Gen
0 You complained there were no verifiable claims. Then you got performance data. Then you complained the response was too thorough and arrived on a Saturday. Associate 2 in IB-M&A

0 This is so niche lol Analyst 1 in IB - Cov
0 Lol so no one can have bad experiences at your school? Take your propaganda elsewhere. You're probably employed by RSM in the admissions office or something  Intern in CB
0 Gets called out and throws a childish tantrum. Not sure what more I expected of RSM grads.. Intern in CB
0 I think you are a troll you mean boib_1
0 Consulting in London would be impossible with RSM alone. Even with the addition of a MiM program in London, the main pipeline is still undergrad UK targets like Oxford PPE, warwick Morse etc.  Intern in CB
0 If you have no choice at all, then that’s a different situation. They are extremely bureaucratic in a sleepy way, even on the insurance company standard, they are still out of the scope. pombidoo
0 You are getting hosed. …and institutional MDs do not only make $120k in this market.  IsItREPE
0 Heard someone just turned down GIC for WCI this cycle. I think it's time for a conversation... treymckenney

0 If you want to suspend them from school or whatever for the drug use, go ahead. But be appropriate about it . . have a drug policy and enforce it equally. Dr. Rahma Dikhinmahas
0 OzymandiaBut it can be incredibly lucrative if you play the game right Which it seems no one here wants to do  Rick Kane
0 LOL I need to relax? Coming from the dude who called me 'callous' for simply explaining the common knowledge that prosecutors aren't supposed to re-open cases without new evidence.  Dr. Rahma Dikhinmahas

0 The questions themselves are usually standard numerical, verbal, and inductive reasoning. cristians.guedes
0 Uh none of these would place you in London. The only target schools in continental Europe placing in London are hec, bocconi, escp and maybe a few others.. Intern in ER
0 elliot cadih treymckenney
0 ft recruiting without a return offer is a different game but it exists. most bb/eb spots go to returns, so the real market is mm and regional banks hiring full time analysts august through october. LedgerShelf
0 I am talking about laymen's prestige. To recruiters they are the same of course but internationally, Oxford >>> Cambridge. Intern in RE - Other

0 Pray tell, what "real skills" are you developing elsewhere that you're not developing in PCA? Associate 1 in IB - Gen
0 Your accuracy is exactly where it needs to be, but the clock is killing your completion rate. cristians.guedes
0 LBS and LSE MIM/GMIM has the strongest pipeline for London MBB, for a long time LBS was placing better than LSE but ever since they made their cohorts bigger they have a more even recruiting trend. Lorderic

0 Best explained by the GOAT. Go to the 50:00 mark. https://valueinvesting.substack.com/p/druckenmiller MMPM
0 Ok how about you open MLP/P72/BAM/Tiger ucb Linkedin pages and tell me how many of their current analyst roster started out their career with 2-4 years at Fidelity/Capital/TRP? Intern in S&T - Other
0 Blue collar jobs aren’t safe either. Enjoy time with family and friends. We are very clearly in the singularity. AGI is imminent. er_beast
0 If you’re less than 24 months out of school and “I hate IB and I don't care about anything I do or learn about anymore” is your attitude, I don’t know what fixes that. Principal in PE - LBOs
0 You're stuck under the impression that AI still makes as many errors as earlier models did. On most routine work current models are now more accurate than any human. sappy
0 On this hierarchy, you seem to be way too invested in WSO posters who according to you are way too invested in someone you think they shouldn’t be so invested in….? Principal in PE - LBOs
0 At the end of the day, results are results. Who cares if a transformer model works differently from human thought when it outputs the same quality of work, if not better?? ojapar20
0 Yes, a meaningful percentage of white-collar work will be automated. AI is no longer a cute "tool" that predicts tokens. The models have already far surpassed the average white-collar worker. ojapar20
0 I don't think it's a bubble. The models are way too useful. ojapar20
0 There will always be humans with outlier creativity and taste, but believe me, AI is better than 90% of us already. ojapar20
