In my experience it’s the senior and/or mid level associate doing all the talking with one or more partners sitting on mute with their camera off. The junior is too, but at least they’re taking notes.

But if any time has to be written off, you know it ain’t gonna be the partner who gets dinged, even if they didn’t say a word.

I once worked for a partner who called a meeting and said the client was complaining about the bills. She said, “It’s like he doesn’t understand what he’s getting for $525 a hour!” (It was a while ago.) The rest of us: we’re pretty sure he does. That’s why he’s complaining,

Going forward, suddenly we weren’t efficient enough and our realizables dropped. Hers didn’t.

Hi, where or what types of companies should sophomores & juniors apply for next summer (2022) to recruit for IB the following summer (2023)? This summer BBs wrapped up SA IB recruitment, EBs even earlier, and a fair amount of my friends missed out big time.

Also, if a sophomore or junior doesn’t get a finance-related summer internship (I.e tech) and aims for an IB SA or FT position, is it harder to break in?

Appreciate any advice and insight, thank you.
