I’m currently an FDD associate looking for MM investment banking roles, my question is 1) what industry groups are good to join if my goal is to join a generalist PE role down the road (if PE shops care about your industry group) and 2) does the group I join matter that much at the junior level if all I’m doing is basically excel monkey work?

Partners,

My firm is immature in guiding development planning. I have energy to accelerate to the next level of responsibility.

What evidence distinguishes an analyst as ready for the next level?

When you recruiters say at the end of a 15 min call.
“I will get back to you by the end of this week” does that really mean “your not right for this position”? Because this whole thing is a waste of time. I’ve did these calls with 3 recruiters and is yet to hear back from someone. Today would be the 4th recruiter that I’ve spoken to. Does this practice annoy you guys just as much as it does us? My dream career is to be a technical recruiter but this whole thing is discouraging.

Finished my loop for a marketing role 2 weeks ago, and got an email the next day that they wanted to give me an offer. Had my initial call with recruiter to put the offer together. It was lower than I expected, and we ended that call positively as I needed some time to consider, and we agreed to follow up in a few days. It’s now been a week and both recruiters have been unresponsive. Did I just lose this offer bc I tried to negotiate a more equitable comp pack, or is it a slow process?
