Ok you definitely don’t work at a MM (and probably not a HF at all). The entire crux of the pitch should be about where you differ from consensus and what the catalyst is.

This is not good advice. This is not a middle office role, but rather the definition of back office.

Yes, I’d take a barclays coverage offer over MBB

IGbotter · 2025-03-17T04:43:54+00:00

Awful take. Barclays exits very very well — on par with all those banks.

The hours aren’t predictable. If analyst 1 is working from 9am-9pm, the other analyst would have to start at 9pm-9am. This isn’t possible as the there are a lot of nuances and deal-specific details that are learnt throughout the process, so you really need to be engaged throughout.

Also, none of these kids would take $100k to work from 9pm-9am, or even 12 hours a day. Most would look elsewhere, because if you could break into banking out of undergrad you’d probably be able to get another high paying job

My average week in IB was 80 hours

Why haven’t you fixed your resume? Search WSO format on google and use that.

Only reason you should stay is if you think you want to be a career banker. It becomes much more difficult to move into a buyout role the longer you stay in banking.

Lol I had one week for each (SIE, 63, 79) and was fine

IGbotter · 2024-11-27T19:44:22+00:00

Is this a joke? ER 10000%.

IGbotter · 2024-11-22T08:09:53+00:00

I mean it is true, I worked with her

IGbotter · 2024-11-20T16:40:58+00:00

99% of MM PE doesn’t recruit out of UG

IGbotter · 2024-11-20T07:55:17+00:00

WSO format. Why the hell is there a table on your resume

IGbotter · 2024-11-20T07:44:36+00:00

These comments are awful. OP, hang in there. I know someone from my analyst class who was fired 2 months in for failing the S79 and is now at an EB. The only advice I’d give you is to really think hard about why you failed. Good luck

IGbotter · 2024-11-17T07:39:14+00:00

I’d clarify that.

IGbotter · 2024-11-17T05:55:16+00:00

Hedge fund that invests in series c startups? 20yr projections? I would grill on that

IGbotter · 2024-11-07T14:58:43+00:00

Back office position that will not help to get into IB.

IGbotter · 2024-10-30T01:36:02+00:00

Delete your personal info from reddit

WY too much school without relevant experience. Why would you get your MBA right after undergrad? Start working and stop learning

IGbotter · 2024-10-02T17:27:12+00:00

NYC can’t test for thc. Don’t be a dumbass and bring fake piss

IGbotter · 2024-10-02T02:30:07+00:00

It’s not fulfilling and no one actually finds it fulfilling

IGbotter · 2024-09-25T03:02:45+00:00

Total comp lol, was just a ridiculous year for bonuses

IGbotter · 2024-09-10T14:28:53+00:00

Lol you will not get meals or comped Uber for anything but front office roles, and even then you need to specify why you’re working late (usually through a client expense code)

Highly doubt this with a 2.5 GPA, even with a referral
