Can’t help much there, but would love to hear about why you went to FAANG and why you now want to get to MBB!

I wanted to go to FAANG to learn more about tech. Im pretty involved technically which I don’t mind, but I miss some of the bigger picture business questions which is why something like MBB would be great

Could you transition without one? What’s your long-term career objective?

I think? I don’t know if I’d be at mba level or not. And long term would love to be close to a c suite in tech

I have similar thoughts sometimes

Don't sensationalize the type of work you will do at MBB

I think I do just because it’s always been seen as a bit of a promised land from b4. Is that not the typical work?

Hi - I’ve moved to Toronto (from Asia) with 5 YOE in Corporate banking + 2 YOE IB/capital markets (7 YOE in TOTAL) working roles in Front Office and financial analysis.

Believe I’d be a great fit as an Associate in the same space at the major banks (RBC, TD, Scotia, CIBC etc) or in PE/ Asset management.

Could someone help by mentioning the salary ranges I can expect?

Also any tips on networking would be appreciated. Thank you!
