+-1 think you caan def get into IB but coming from a solid SM you'lll almost fs have to downgrade prestige I believe (could be wrong though anything is posssible). On a sep note, mind letting me pm you to ask fund name? Prospect in IB-M&A

+-1 Another DEI Beckie spotted ^  Intern in IB - Gen

+-1 It has since changed 😛 Anonymous Monkey
+-1 cus I suck at networking Anonymous Monkey
+-1 How do you determine. Who’s deserving and who’s not of promotions when they’re DEI then. I just don’t know how you’re supposed to pick and choose Anonymous Monkey
+-1 Presently terrible overlord481216
+-1 Should we just fire all female analyst and only hire the smartest of men. Or better idea make only men in senior positions because on average, with your logic, they’re smarter than women. Anonymous Monkey
+-1 No coffee chat = most likely no interview at this stage. But follow up with all head hunters you never know Intern in IB - Gen
+-1 Why do you say that? DeletedAccount...
+-1 Interesting. I assume these are people that went to Cambridge for undergraduate, correct? Also, where did they say Oxford was better regarded, because it seems that in the West they’re regarded similarly. DeletedAccount...
+-1 Why so? DeletedAccount...

+-1 Technically this can be done already... kardycui
+-1 Insane pedigree for a new fund, founder co-founded a MF and got kicked out amid internal fighting, which materially de-risks fundraising and access (similar in spirit to 26North). Associate 1 in PE - LBOs
+-1 Relax. No point in arguing. Just reiterating something I’ve been told by single manager PMs themselves even referring to their past analysts.  PlatoPm
+-1 No, the food scam was close to 1B.  That is a small fraction of the fraud tied to the Somali scammers in MN alone. PEarbitrage
+-1 In MN state regulators only "require" a visit once in a six month period. That visit is scheduled weeks in advance and it only really checks for "safety" issues on the sites. PEarbitrage
+-1 OP and 80% of the commenters on this thread are jews, instigating identity politics discourse about anything besides jews Prospect in IB - Gen

+-1 god it's so hilarious. once you see it, you just can't unsee it Prospect in IB - Gen
+-1 Jon Gray, I’m surprised no one is mentioning him. He joined a firm mostly focused on traditional PE and he delivered such strong and consistent results that he singlehandedly reoriented what BX is known for. Anonymous Monkey
+-1 Jumping on this bandwagon late - what do you think about internal promotions to a new business line? e.g. "we think you have potential and want you to build out a business in this space we aren't currently active in. whatisunrounded
+-1 im not Jewish but I agree with this Anonymous Monkey
+-1 If you take a look at the talent Solomon has hired in the last 18 months (ex Goldman, Greenhill, Guggenheim, Evercore, etc MDs who are rainmakers in their respective sectors) you’d be hard pressed to argue that piper and c VP in IB-M&A
+-1 they agree to take plan B. and now they start to gossip. still don't get it. Anonymous Monkey
+-1 Everyone fear mongers is hilarious, no proof kicking off any time soon Domodomo
+-1 You are a racist. Clearly, you have’t done any research that only women, black / Hispanic men, and LGBTQ are classified as DEI by banks.  Analyst 1 in IB-M&A
+-1 If you say so. Why don’t we all reconvene here 7 days from now and see who was right… Intern in IB - Gen

+-1 I guess my question is does personality really matter that much? Can’t you grow to love someone? Most marriages in history between the rich and powerful did not care about personality at all. gigolo_1
+-1 Yes, Digital is the Only Path to Millions Under 30. Isaiah_53_5 💎🙌💎🙌💎
+-1 Ownership and ideologial leanings of the news room have nothing to do with each other. But great attempt to shift the conversation. PEarbitrage

+-1 Do you happen to work in the industry? Your family friend is a tiny sample sizeSchool has one of the most expansive alumni network on WS out of all the schools listed here. VP in IB - Gen
+-1 That wasn’t my intention, I honestly feel like I was targeting (white male nepos who throw the biggest tantrums when they don’t get promoted), not brown/asian men who deserve their spot a majority of the time. Anonymous Monkey
+-1 bruh Anonymous Monkey
+-1 The irony is that this will do more to end the war in Russia than hundreds of billions of dollars in military aid has done. PEarbitrage
+-1 Unreal man congrats. Was the grind worth it? BoweryScumbag

+-1 CVP too high, analysts can’t hit MFPE no matter how hard they try. Most people I know picked other competing offers over CVP. Analyst 2 in IB-M&A

+-1 EVR NYC has a small TMT team. It’s broken down by sector at VP and up (ie. Fintech, etc…), but there are Analysts and Associates on the group in NYC. Then ofc you have EVR Menlo which does have a full TMT group Prospect in IB-M&A

+-1 For GS only senior matter. Analyst said that she doesn’t have any power connected me to an MD who does have power to get ppl past hirevue. lkfdshfkhask
+-1 This is a good point. It's fantastic that race-based DEI has come down a lot, but all forms of DEI must go frankly. That may take some time hedgehog9
+-1 The funniest thing that almost everyone who commented on this thread has had shit thrown at them. nooneinparticular
+-1 Sure having people from different backgrounds is always better, but I've found that these people (esp MBA associates) have an enormous chip on their shoulder to compensate and treat juniors with disrespect because of this. Intern in IB-M&A
+-1 Sure nuclear is great, I 100% agree with that.  The issue is that the idiots who are degrowth focused in the west are against it becuase they don't actually care about the environment. PEarbitrage
+-1 enjoy the freedom you have, ur analyst could be the type that works till 10/11pm everyday. spudrmonke
