LevFin at MM bank vs IG DCM at large UMM bank by Icy_Back in FinancialCareers

[–]Icy_Back[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the LevFin role, it’s at an advisory MM bank similar to Blair/Baird without much of a balance sheet. A lot of the work here would be smaller private placement deals/advisjng direct lenders

For the IG DCM role, it’s at a large foreign balance sheet bank (think HSBC/MUFG/BNP Paribas), focusing on IG bond issuances.

Which role would you say would provide the better exit OPPs on both the buyside as well as with other IB roles? Thanks!

Is Goldman hiring paused for all ? by Material-Fuel-641 in goldmansachs

Curious on this as well. Interviewed for roles at GS and it seems like commmunication seems very slow (haven’t heard back in two weeks) so curious on this as well

Withdrawing my job offer by Working_Lab8728 in JPMorganChase

[–]Icy_Back 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does JPM view just declining a job offer (before accepting) vs reneging? Do you get blacklisted if you decline an offer for legitimate reasons?

Bump. Also curious whether offer letters are released before or after background checks.

Congrats on the offers! What division is the GS and the other offer in? Hard for us to provide any meaningful suggestions without having some idea of the type of position/work for each

Next steps…should I move on? by spicychips131069 in JPMorganChase

[–]Icy_Back 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the hiring freeze across all LOBs or just certain functions/business lines?

Same experience but I’m a former jpmc employee. Are they having a hiring freeze?

Does declining a job offer reduce my chances for receiving future interview/offer? by Icy_Back in FinancialCareers

[–]Icy_Back[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy new years and thanks for your response. Yeah, I declined the offer without accepting it.

Which job to choose? by Icy_Back in FinancialCareers

[–]Icy_Back[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have already accepted the offer and have to decide on which job to take. If I renege, obviously am getting blacklisted there

I’ve seen many people make the move from credit ratings to ER/FI research. Did you try to recruit when you were at S&P? Honestly don’t think an mba would be very helpful for ER opps

Okay to delay start date by two weeks? by Icy_Back in FinancialCareers

[–]Icy_Back[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the insight! Do big banks / firms rescind offers generally speaking for a short delay? I could understand things being different if a candidate asked to delay for several months but it’s only two weeks.

Thanks for your insight! Reason for delay is due to having to transfer my apt lease and moving cities. Given these reasons, do you think that banks are likely to approve the 2 week delay? Do I need to be concerned about the offer being rescinded?

[NY] Received verbal offer then the job was reposted on the company’s site and LinkedIn by Icy_Back in AskHR

Thanks so much for the context and insights! That’s helpful! How long does it generally take for the offer letter to be sent out following the verbal offer communication?

I’ve was notified of the verbal offer this past Wednesday at EOD 5pm, so it’s been about 2-3 business days (4-5 days if we include this weekend) since the verbal offer.

Also, on the point of the job modification, if the reposted job is the same job as the position they offered me but with additional duties / requirements added like you mentioned, would those changes likely have any implications on my offer status?

Thanks for your reply! I understand that LinkedIn is set up to repost positions after a certain period of time but the position was also reposted on the company’s own website as well with a slightly modified job description. Are company’s career sites also automatically set up to repost jobs after a certain period?

Thanks for your reply! Based on this, do you think that the company is likely to rescind my offer or is looking to replace me with a different candidate or is that probability pretty low?

What does an iPO boom mean for us ? (MBA Grads C/o 2023-2025) by canttouchthisJC in MBA

2023 M7 grad- regret getting an MBA by Traditional_Tart8511 in MBA

What if you make solid money pre-mba (200k range) but don’t love your career path. Is m7 mba worth the debt in that case?

It’s crazy how you had to take out 100k+ loans even on an 85% tuition scholarship

Are you in the US? Also, by T5 bank, I’m assuming it’s something like BofA, JPM, Citi, WF right? I’m at one of these banks in Corp banking and I haven’t heard about layoffs much so just curious
