No doubt, you??re saying at long last, this guy??s getting to the point ??
Re your second question, yes, you can ask your interviewer. I??d suggest you phrase it as how the next stage goes ?? and then work in the question about identity of department or person who will interview if this is known. Some firms hire first for a pool then allocate later to departments. Part of your initial life may be rotations through various departments to give you a broad overview and frankly to fill the firm??s immediate needs.
Final parting shots
(a) NY Times DealBook (Andrew Ross Sorkin) daily email is a neat way to keep on top of developments. Log onto NYTimes and register as a subscriber, then select this newsletter. Of course, don??t stop reading the WSJ and FT.
(b) If you??re going into a market related interview, let me know, I can suggest some freebie sources of info and other stuff
(c) Educational background: Do you have finance and/or accounting? How strong is this?
Re your third question, answered in an earlier rant. |

Two followup questions.
1) I have access to a bloomberg terminal. Is there a way to get industry specific league tables on the bloomberg?
2) If I'm interviewing for an M&A/Corporate Finance position in an i-bank, what are some of the functions I should be familiar with on the bloomberg? Or to ask in a different way, what are the bloomberg functions that investment bankers use regularly?
So far, I know:
- MA (for general league tables, not industry specific)
- NI (then search for M&A news)
- LEAG (for underwriting league tables)
Anything else?
