The only real issue of going in as an analyst is you’re at the bottom of the shit pile and there’s no one to roll it down to. Compensation wise coming from being a staff accountant or auditor it can’t even compare so that shouldn’t be your concern. Don’t wait around for another IB position, you’re not going to get an associate role coming from a staff accounting role.

I have been thinking about switching to IB as well from public accounting. Besides networking, did you have any other prior experience in finance to help you land the job (i.e previous internships). I have no finance experience, but have been reading up on modelling to prepare. Also, if you don’t mind me asking is your analyst position at a BB or a boutique?

Pwc 2 it might be different in Canada then, but when I had my coop last year if you worked in January so during busy season it was considered an accelerated coop so you would come back to the firm as an experienced associate. Since I restarted again this January as an experienced associate, since promotions happen in August I am up for promotion to senior
