Hi all! I started at a Big 4 in NYC in September 2024. I went to a top-50 uni for undergrad/grad school, but I’m starting to get the itch to move out of audit and currently have FDD offers from BRG, BDO, and Kroll in NYC. My question is: if my end goal is MM IB, am I better off waiting until senior and then recruiting for a Big 4 deals group or A&M, or should I take one of the MM FDD offers above? I’d love to start doing deals work now, but I know that, unfortunately, prestige is a factor in IB.

Hi! If anyone has experience going from Transaction advisory Services to IB please DM me.

Accepting an offer in IBD, lateraling over from consulting. Opportunity of a lifetime for me so don’t want to lose it.
But timing is horrible. I joined the Army Reserves before this opportunity was on my radar. Interviewed over several months, got the offer, but shipping out in 1 month for training for 6 months.
Do I irreversibly shoot my career by joining and immediately going on LoA? I obviously haven’t mentioned it in the interview process. Or will this be forgotten a couple years in?

Just saw an investment banking analyst position at Raymond James that I was interested in, would anybody working there be willing to give me a referral? Thanks!
