Have been working at my family’s construction/civil work company for three consecutive summers doing internships (working on the accounting area). Now looking for entry-level jobs in investment banking, what position can i put i did for those three summers in my cv? and what jobs should i look for? (i have a bachelors in finance and have worked in venture/research analyst) - just don’t know how to tie it all up together smartly :) thanks 🎉

What type of accounting work? Did you prepare for audits in a controller-like role? I’d include experience handling/forecasting FS. Also good to tie in how any certifications you may have (training the street/CPA progress/CFI courses) helped you in your work. I made my jump from public accounting (audit) and that’s what I emphasized on my resume.

yeah i helped prepare the annual accounts, did main accounting, re-negotiated bank loans etc, all hand-in-hand with the finance director. he’s the one in charge of everything and it’s a multi-million company so i got all the insight.

i just don’t know how to put it in my cv. i worked there for 3 summers and not sure if i should list all of them as ‘internships’ or internship/analyst/analyst or internship/analyst/associate etc etc.. i can technically put anything as it’s my family’s company and they’ll back me up for anything

thank you for the help!

Asking for wife who's also in banking. If she got ~$100k in signing bonus in 2019 for 1 year commitment in CA and started FT in July 2020, assuming she leaves before July 2021, can her employer claw back full amount in California? Some say it's much tougher to do so under CA law but wonder if anyone has any insights. Banks won't likely care about analyst signing bonuses, but associate bonus at EB with diversity bonus can be significant. If she quits before, she won't be going to another bank.

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.
