Very much depends what you want. Lazard is closer to a pure boutique. Really strong in advisory
Roth is quite a but better and will probably have a better spring week.
I think if you want to work for a boutique, though. The beauty is in the size; smaller the better (above a certain level, obviously)

I have an invitation for an interview with GS Operations. Issue is that they never stated the dates during the application, and because it's a 2 week programme it clashes with a new term at my university. Pretty annoying!

Can argue this all day, very close between them. Historically, Rothschild has had more deal flow in Europe, it has just been the last 2 years that Lazard has pinched Rothschild to it.

It is the opposite story in the US, Lazard has dominated Rothschild for quite some time there, and still continues to do so.

Anyone hear from GS GIR? Also, I sent in my application for Nomura in early dec, but still havent heard anything from them. Does it mean I got rejected by Nomura already? Cheers!


Same sitch. My application for Nomura has been under review for 6 weeks... Really tempted to ring them and ask them what's up.

So why Banking?

Because there's huge base salary, and potential for bonus to make me work harder and harder. Also I can wear fancy suits and have hot girlfriend.

Tell me about a time when you worked in a team?

What's your biggest weakness?

My inability to lose money

I just tend not to think about it, until I hear a response.
Anyone else got an email from Barclays saying 'Your application is currently under review'. Good sign, bad sign?
