Which would you choose big 4 risk or grant transaction services? ( Entry level)
Also for those at GT, is restructuring a part of transaction services, my two interviews are going to be people in FDD, but the description also had valuations and restructuring as part of it.

Be very careful interviewing for “risk advisory/consulting” jobs at the big. They sell it as consulting but ends up being IT Audit or internal audit.

Yes def go to GT TS

TS at b4 is a meat grinder just FYI. Especially at Deloitte. Burn and churn baby burn and churn. Highly recommend you just go into IB if deals is your goal

Just to be frank, I've basically lost all my chances at ib, but transaction services is definitely attainable for me. I come from a non target school, and don't have any network in IB

Hey all! I have an interview with

Is it the case here?
Thanks!
