At investment banks, how do you tell a company is over valued or undervalued? Based on p/e only or dcf? Because dcf results vary in a wide range, how is it accurate?

Any advice for final round interviews for PE associate roles? Any unique questions you’ve seen? Any tips on how to standout?

Anyone in IB/PE in Toronto? Would like to connect to learn more about the industry

Is it worth it to recruit for a PE Associate role if your current plan is to get 2YOE, go get an MBA and pivot afterwards? Seems like most people can’t /won’t stick around to make it to the top and end up doing something else anyways.

Anyone ever make the switch from consulting for a life sciences consultancy or boutique to an ops role in a fund investing in payer/provider or healthcare systems?

Looking for Scrum Master roles…. Can’t seem to be getting any interviews smh!!!

Working on a regular desk and my laptop has been killing my back and neck for last few years. Finally spent a couple hundred dollars on a standing desk, wireless keyboard, and back/neck heating pad to alleviate the pain. Very hopeful working will be much better now.

May be a bit niche but: expected salary for product engineering and development manager at Deloitte? 13YOE as a mechanical engineer, currently principal engineer of a global product line. (This is for my husband, not me. Ignore the title/name.)

Just wanted to understand how much do you guys spend on clothing on a monthly/yearly basis.

I love this career and want to help more people but I feel like I really suck at marketing myself to help more people. People don’t pick up the phone or reply to electronic communications. Continued.

Looking for recommendations for directors with luxury/ beauty/ car experience for upcoming shoot. Thanks

I've recently went to a restaurant and saw a robot waiter, I thought that was the coolest thing. What do you all feel about this shift in the restaurant industry?

been in industry (small companies) for 5 years with an active CPA. Wanted to get in SEC reporting roles but almost every company requires 2-year public accounting exp. Now applying for public accounting firms entry level positions but almost all firms HR asked if I had ever worked in firms. Got rejection emails from firms all the time. Is this a dead lock? firms exp matters much more than a CPA license?

Lower middle market bros. What’a your comp structure? I will share:

I have a meeting with a CEO of a start-up IB. She is meeting to help guide me in the industry (not just a job interview). What questions would you ask?

Thoughts on GP Bullhound?

Experience in shareholder services for GS?

Any recommendations on brushing up on PowerPoint?

Closing in on a corp dev offer. I work at a boutique (~10 ppl) where the analysts/associates carry a lot of weight during deals. What is the longest i could push my potential start date back to for this new role? I don’t wanna leave while i’m in the middle of a bunch of things and screw over my current firm. They’ve been good to me

does anyone have experience exiting after 1 year? any vengeful MD stories? my MD knows a lot of people and i’m scared if i interview or exit to one of these places that he has a connection at he might try to mess with my career...

Am I more or less likely to be laid off if the economy tanks even more if I just started as an analyst two months ago

Late stage analyst 1 at a mid-market heavy TMT focused M&A boutique in London. Keen to increase exit opps and realise it may be worth trying to lateral to a BB / name brand. Any opinions / advice on achievability? If low, what’s the best move here.

Anyone know of any banking analyst lateral opportunities in Chicago? Looking to jump to BB/EB. Any insight to the shops around here is much appreciated!

Interesting all the noise about these PPT, my take:

The pandemic took all the upside of an IB analyst life (client meetings in person, fancy trips, suit up, worshiped at networking events) and left all the juniors with the downside (long hours, monkey-like type of job, aggressive work environment).

Not that the complaints are not sort of legitimate but you may need to revise the decision-making process that led you to accept a return offer. Specially if you were looking for less hours.

I just graduated from a nontarget in Dec 2020 & am currently interning at PwC before I go back to do my Masters. My initial plan was to accept my full time offer and slowly work my way into IB.

I see postings right now for FT IB analyst programs. Should I even try applying online?

Ik recruiters don’t really read cover letters, but I learned about banking rlly late into college. i’m the daughter of blue collar workers who don’t speak English so I never really knew what jobs were “prestigious”

I just received an offer to lateral into banking. How does independence affect the stocks I currently own? If I join and my stocks are on a restricted list will I have to sell them? Or will I be limited to being unable to buy more/sell any during the course of my employment.

What are realistic expectations for 3rd Year Analyst / Direct Promote Associate bonus range at a BB? Note that at MS, 2nd year bonuses in my group last year were 90-115K, while MBA associates received a pro-rated 90K stub (~40k). Personally would be pretty unhappy to take a pay cut between 2nd and 3rd year…

I want to be a client instead of an investment banker. Where do I sign up?
