IBD analyst with experience in technology and consumer groups (consumer group needed help yesterday and I volunteered because they moved me out to SF in corporate housing for a couple months). Currently in the process of moving into sell-side research at the same bank because I'm more interested in the markets than pitch books.

ReD_XIII posted:Hey, I am a freshman at Drexel University majoring in Business admin concentrating in finance. I am a very driven person, graduated salutatorian of my high school, and have already gotten into a very selective and unique student organization. I am loving college and enjoying myself plenty. Blackrock isn't an investment bank, its an asset management firm. Do NOT go straight to get your MBA, it will be a huge mistake that you will regret. Anyone that says it's a good idea has zero clue. If your truly that smart, transfer schools. Drexel sucks, and is probably one if the worst schools in the Philly area. Go to UPenn/Nova if you want to stay in Philly or transfer to an ivy league school.

Omerta posted:I'm a law school student right now and I have a firm interview coming up. It's a large firm that handles a lot of M&A work. Since the two professions are pretty intimately connected, I was wondering if I could get some of your thoughts on what lawyers could do to better meet company-side needs. Or framed less positively, what do attorneys do that really piss you off and frustrate your business. I know many first year analysts who poo poo on Partners at top law firms. Lawyers are literally bankers bitches, and are honestly there because compliance makes them be. poo poo flows downhill, and downhill are lawyers and BO guys. I was always nice, but I never really let the stress get to me fwiw. For short, avoid law, especially if you have to deal with bankers.

Swingline posted:A senior acquaintance of mine just got offered a job at Bain in Boston right out of undergrad. I didn't ask about the details. He mentioned 75k starting +150k bonus or something so I assume it's not back office. He's kind of an all-star here in terms of running multiple student organizations but I heard his GPA is pretty average (3.6-3.7 range). I imagine he aced the interviews though with how outgoing and charismatic he is. 150k bonus is a lie just FYI.

tolerabletariff posted:Barclays got their numbers Wednesday. Friend wasn't too forthcoming (but he might be reserved about that kind of thing) so it was hard-to-read. Barcap 60-80-100 mid range. RBCs numbers on DB for top seem high or they have a ridiculously wide range. I've heard 55-70-90. I wonder how much numbers change between cities.
