West Coast On-Cycle Process Clashing with IB Training in NYC
Could really use some advice on this.
I am an incoming IB analyst at mid-tier BB in a top team from a non-target school. I’m set to be based in the SF office, which I'm pretty stoked about since I interned with them last summer and managed to snag a return offer (and I just love SF waaaaaay more than NYC). I've poured a ton of effort into prepping for the on-cycle process my senior year and networking with west-coast PE associates. But I just found out that our IB training is going to be in-person in NYC for a month, which totally clashes with the on-cycle timing. To say I am crushed would be an understatement, as this basically blows my chances of any recruitment on the west coast for on-cycle.
I'm really not keen on being stuck in NYC during this critical time, but I don't know what to do since they take attendance at training (and I can't risk loosing the original job for obvious reasons). Has anyone had this dilemma before? Should I start looking at off-cycle opportunities instead? Should I just recruit for NYC anyway and suck it up? Would love to get your thoughts on this because I can't seem to find much online.
SO many SF-based firms (TPG, H&F, etc etc etc) come to NYC to conduct on-cycle because they know that’s where the majority of IB analysts are. I’d say it’s actually much better to be in NYC during this time because to my knowledge, there’s no “on-cycle” that happens in SF, even for SF based firms. The majority is in NYC regardless of the location of the firm / location you’re recruiting for. You’re actually in a perfect situation (much better than SF-based analysts that have to do training in SF and then figure out a way to come to NYC). Don’t sweat it.
