Executive Director @ RecruitU | Building essential recruiting tools for students and employers
"I got 5 Summer Analyst investment banking offers!" "Which one do I pick?" First of all, congratulations! So much hard work is required to get these offers. Next step - Making a well-informed decision: 1. What questions do you need answered to get comfortable accepting? For example: -> Deal pipeline -> Type of technical experience (always pitching or signing deals?) -> Staffing (have a specific summer staffer?) -> Senior leader exposure -> Company (and team specific) reputation -> Analyst Training Program 2. Have you spoken to former Analysts about their experience? (not just currently working at firm?) Did they have a great or mediocre experience? 3. How have your interactions with employees at each of the firms been? Do they interact with each other well or competitively? Would you want to work with them? 4. TRUST YOUR GUT Just like picking the college of your dreams, picking an internship requires you to: ☑ Get as much information you can AND ☑ Trust your feelings 🎉 And once you make the decision, be happy and relieved. You’ve made a great career decision for you!
