When you get an offer from an investment bank, do they usually tell you what your summer salary is going to be on the phone, or do they usually send a letter detailing all that information a few days later after the call? Thanks in advance.

Delay much?
Isn't there a cap on the amount of time you can put a candidate (2010 FT Analyst) "on hold" for? That's been my status at a BB since before Christmas last year but got an email from an MD last week saying they are still evaluating the hiring situation for the group. Any chance they were waiting for...

Decoding MD-speak
An MD replied to my follow-up email telling me that they are "continuing to evaluate whether we will be hiring into our group - we will keep you posted as we learn more". Is it possible that some groups have not decided whether they will hire at all by this time of year for 2010 FT Analyst...
Offer Advice - Extended an offer
Hi everyone. I was extended an exploding offer for a BB in NYC last week (not GS /MS/ JPM level). I liked the people that I met there for the most part, and think that I would be happy if I took the offer, however there were a few places that I liked more. The problem for me is, OCR has barely...

Reviving an offer? Please help please.
I once had an offer from a small boutique firm, which provides independent advisory services in United States. I rejected them and I feel I made a wrong decision. Now I see they are recruiting in one of the regional offices in the West Coast. Do you guys think its worth calling them up and asking if...
Appropriate time to contact recruiter after final round interviews?
Hey everyone, I was just wondering how long after final round interviews is it appropriate to contact HR about offers. I was originally told I would be contacted Thursday afternoon/Friday (Thursday was my final round) about offers, but still haven't heard back from them yet. Would e-mailing them...
Next move?
During my superday at a BB i-bank, I had an especially constructive interview with a VP who grilled me on both fit and technical, but was very personable and I felt I hit it off with. He replied to my follow-up thank you email, which I thought was unusual seeing that most interviewers don't, and...
Really want the damn job!
I'm on hold at GS for a 2010 analyst position, and HR has hinted that they'd be in touch with me after the new year. Although I would die for the job, I'm fine with waiting around until they get back to me. However, I've gotten repeated advice to use this opportunity to talk to the relevant people...
internship w/ no guarantee of an offer
I've been offered an internship at a boutique investment bank that will run for 3 months from January to April. It's paying a small stipend. The problem is that, even if I perform well, I still may not be extended a FT analyst offer. I graduated in 2008 and am currently working at a financial...
ER or keep interviewing
So, a little background. I've worked in IB / PE for a little over three years. Over two of them spent at large banks in IB and a little less than a year starting up a Real Estate Private Equity. I've been looking for a permanent position at the same time without a ton of luck with the markets the...
LinkedIn request after rejecting an offer
So I'm accepting an offer at one BB and rejecting another BB . Should I friend request people who've been in contact with me at the firm I'm rejecting? Who do you request on LinkedIn? Do people even use LinkedIn for lateral recruiting?
Jefferies vs. Oppenheimer vs. Moelis
If choosing between offers at Jefferies , Oppenheimer , and Moelis , what would be the best option? Main considerations for me are: best learning experience, best exit opp's, and best pay potential. If you could also state why you think one is better than the other, that would be most helpful....
Leveraging the fact that I have an offer in my cover letter
Hello, I've received an offer from a bank but I am undecided about working there and want to explore other opportunities.

A Question about an Full-Time IB Offer ???
I just finished my internship with a BB I-Bank this Summer and was fortunate enough to receive a full-time offer for Fall 2010. :-) This was great news until I got my offer letter, and saw that the start date for the program is about 2.5 weeks before my graduation. As my name suggests I am...

I will not get a full-time offer. What to do?
Alright, my internship has yet to end, but I know I will not get an offer. I work in a bank consisting mostly of friends, brothers, and relatives but it's not FBR. While I do my best to interact, it is very difficult to fit in being the only intern not somehow related to the bankers in the office....

Getting the offer
How does the offer process work? Is there a day at the end of the internship dedicated to wrapping things up with HR where they extend an offer? Will your supervisor talk to you about it before the summer ends? Or do they contact you in the fall with all the info?

So...I recently had an interview with a top restructuring group in NYC (think Miller Buckfire, Blackstone, HLHZ)...and, to my surprise, I got an offer (SA) on this Saturday. It's 60K prorated with no signing bonus or anything... But I already accepted an IBD SA offer from a global investment bank...
Venture Capital Offer
Friend gave me a call yesterday. He has final rounds tomorrow with a small VC fund. They are supposed to give him the final decision on Wednesday. Only about eight people total, so he asked if he should write a few of the senior VPs he connected with and let them know that the firm is his top...

Should People Really Pick GS For a Summer Analyst Stint?
I know the title may seem absurd at first, but my reasoning is legit. Having summered at MS, I know that many kids ended up w/o an offer... GS didn 't bring that many people back from their class either. Given that fall recruiting will be essentially non-existent for the next few years, should a top...
My offer is a little strange.
Hey guys, I was lucky enough to get an offer at a boutique firm, but their offer letter is a little strange. They said that hiring is done on a first-come first-serve basis (i.e. whomever accepts the offer and gets in touch with the company early gets hired first), and that there is a chance that if...
BlackRock Offer and Layoffs

Answering this tricky interview question....help
Hi, If one interned at a top boutique in M&A and worked one's ass off and did a good job but did not receive a full-time offer at the end (obviously one is somewhat subjective here), can anyone think of a good way to spin this in an interview scenario? If one of the principal reasons was the team...
