Currently 2nd year associate in valuation (started September 2019). Have had some pretty promising interviews at a pretty reputable MM boutique investment bank. This is what I want my next step to be, but I don’t want the stigma of someone who works at a place for a year then hops around. Should I wait until end of year 2 to move?

Or should I go now?

Go now.

Take it

I’d rather leave for a bank that isn’t a boutique but no one is going to care that you left after a year. In the long run banking will open more doors.
