Firms
Investment banking firm profiles: culture, deal flow, prestige, and reputation at bulge brackets and elite boutiques, so you target the right banks to apply.
Targeting the right banks is half the recruiting battle. These firm profiles cover the culture, deal flow, group strengths, and reputation of the bulge brackets and elite boutiques, so you can build a list that fits your goals and your background. Each profile is written to help you both decide where to apply and speak credibly about a specific firm in an interview: the details that show you have done real homework rather than read a ranking.
