Pardon my ignorance, but what’s MBB?
- mertd 3y agoApparently it's the big three of management consulting.
- rendall 3y agoI suppose it should not surprise me as much as it does that there are people out there who are in the union set of people who have interviewed at FAANG (i.e. all of them or enough not to refer to them individually) and also interviewed at MBB (ditto). No Jane Street, though? No PEGS? No GSIBs?
- alephnerd 3y agoFor those of us who started in the last 10 years, Jane Street falls within that union set as well. MBBs, FAANG, and top HFTs tend to recruit at the same handful of top public and private schools. The GSIBs (by which I assume you mean large banks) pay shit outside of their IB practices. That said, if you were good enough to get a FAANG APM interview and an MBB Analyst interview at a program like Cal or Mich or Harvard you'd probably get an IB Associate interview at UBS or JPMC as well.
- bigbillheck 3y ago> union ... and Unions are (by and large) 'inclusive or's, for an 'and' you're thinking of intersections.
- rendall 3y agoYou are correct!
- Delk 3y agoPeople might prefer not to single out the company even if they only interviewed at one. Just a guess, though.
- rcarmo 3y agoMore than one in each set. But no, singling out isn’t a thing I do, unless there are memorable bits in the process—-and you always learn something by it.
- rcarmo 3y agoBorrowing a quote from a recent movie, I have a very particular set of skills :)
