1Y M7 MBA student, have landed a buy-side role for the summer, but thinking about recruiting for IB full-time roles as my internship isn’t yet sure they’ll be hiring for FT. Any thoughts / comments / insights on the experience?

Do it. De risk where you can

Very little second year recruiting in IB, especially now. Just commit to the buy side

This. Second year recruiting has dwindled A LOT since the highs of 2021. Won’t hurt to try but will be very difficult (first question would be: is this just your backup plan since PE didn’t work out and people will view you as a flight risk (in the near term think 6-12 months) as soon as you can go back to PE).

Rising 2nd year here: been rethinking my choice as an M&A attorney. I've had a rough go of it over the first year-and-a-half of practice and am thinking about moving to a different practice area. I'd like to stay on the transactional side, but am not quite sure what areas I can leverage my corporate and M&A skills in. I was thinking T&E (i.e. business succession planning, etc.)

Would greatly appreciate input from others.
