Does Anyone Else Feel Like Boutiques are Hiring More Right Now?
The title says it all, but I go to a target, and I have been noticing a lot of boutiques putting out feelers for off-cycle 2023 hiring. This is not limited to just banking either. It seems like lean shops whether its PE/VC/GE/IB are doing this. It seems weird that as most BB and traditional tech are...
How are boutiques really viewed?
How are boutiques really viewed? Not just in terms of "prestige" but in terms of exit opps, lateral hiring, and grad school admissions. Does it really all come down to your deal experience and not the name on your resume? Are you f*cked if you start out at a boutique vs a BB/EB? Does simply working...

If someone could...

Applying to Boutiques/MM
For those of you who did not land a BB internship and later applied to boutiques, did you mention that you have gone through the recruiting process at BBs and was unable to land an offer? I am not sure if I should mention that I have been invited to Superdays at BBs , since it may show that I am...
Click! The Banking Snapshot Thus Far...
In the spirit of the Olympic Games in London, I'd like to say, “ Take a dive! ” Because it seems to be what the IB industry has generally been doing in 2012 given the latest news coming from WS firms. Early in the earnings season I’ve hearing about revenue guidance coming in weak from Bob...

Hello Monkeys, Does anyone have any useful/concrete information on them? They're the boutique investment banking/advisory arm of Willis - a massive reinsurance broker.

Question regarding differences between investment banks
Hey guys, I think I have a pretty good idea of what investment banking is ( IBD , I mean). However, in the informational interviews that I've been holding with bankers from different firms, a distinction has been popping up again and again. I'll give an example: Speaking on the phone with an analyst...

Good Article Investment Banking Boutiques Are on the Rise
Boutiques like Qatalyst for other sectors?
I know Qatalyst Partners is incredibly strong, and has no problem placing analysts at megafunds. What are some other examples of boutiques that place very well, in all industries? Looking for both US/UK perspectives. Thanks
HP dumpster to PE fundster
By now, we've all hear about the Mark Hurd scandal . But what hasn't been mentioned as readily is the axed-CEO market. Other than jail or a prominent role in facilities engineering at the same company, where is a C-level exec to go once he becomes the media's latest lynch puppet burning in effigy?

Energy Boutique dealflow
Is a 10-man energy boutique that averages about 8 deals a year any good? What I'm trying to understand is the dealflow aspect of it. I know that 8 isn't much but with a 10 man team, that seems sufficient or am I wrong? Oh yeah...they've been around for about 15 years in one of the two major energy...

Regional Boutiques
I know there was a thread like this one in the past, but I noticed it was from 2007, my guess is that quite a few of those firms are no longer around. I was hopping we could start a new actualized list of regional boutiques. If you have access to Capital IQ, your contribution will be much...

Too late to start looking for a FT analyst position?
At what point is it "too late" to start looking for a job as a full time analyst? I am a senior at a target school and never really saw myself at an investment bank until now. I'm not expecting a BB at this point, but do I still have a chance at finding a MM or boutique that will interview me? The...

Random Question: Any Such Thing As Elite Boutiques in ACCOUNTING/Big 4 or bust?
So I'm sure all of you are familiar with the Moelis , Greenhill , Lazard , Evercore type of boutique shops in the banking world that are nearly as selective (or maybe even as difficult) and provide just as good of work environments as the elite bulge brackets . However, I'm wondering whether this...

I am a Senior headed to a specialized boutique investment bank in New York. I was wondering what your thoughts were on gauging profitability of private boutiques. The firm I am going to work for has only closed one deal so far in 2010, and it was relatively small for them. Usually they are a...
