For those at MBB in Canada, how difficult is it to transfer to a US office? Does it happen frequently or rarely? What sorts of factors go into the decision?

I'm currently at an M7 MBA program in the US and planning to move back to Toronto for a couple of years after because my partner is in grad school at UofT. But our long term plan is to move back to the States, and I'm wondering if that's a feasible strategy.

Pretty doable I think. And if it doesn’t line up with your current firm, consider jumping ship to another.

I am thinking of using a backdrop so that the mess will be covered up. It will be a 30-min interview.
