when and how to start ft recruiting
Hi, I'm an incoming sa at a west coast eb tech group (bank is good, group is mid), and i know that I want to ft recruit. Getting to nyc is one of my main priorities, and I ideally want to switch groups/locations at the same bank, or just recruit at a new bank in new york altogether. When should I start reaching out to people? When I do, should I send them my resume - if so, should it include my current bank/group?
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's a strategic approach to full-time (FT) recruiting, especially when aiming to relocate or switch groups within the banking sector:
Timing for Outreach: Start networking as early as possible, ideally right at the beginning of your summer analyst (SA) stint. This gives you ample time to build meaningful connections and understand the landscape of opportunities in NYC. Keep in mind that FT recruiting timelines can vary, but it's common for processes to start towards the end of summer or early fall. Staying proactive is key.

Strategize Your Approach:
Prepare for Conversations: Before any informational interviews or formal networking calls, prepare thoughtful questions about the person’s experience, the firm’s culture, and specifics about the NYC banking scene. Demonstrating your knowledge and interest can make a strong impression.
Remember, networking is about building genuine relationships. Be respectful of people’s time, express gratitude for any guidance received, and keep your communications professional and concise. Good luck with your FT recruiting efforts!
