Based on the WSO threads discussing lateral hiring in investment banking, here’s what you need to know:
Timing for Lateral Moves: If you're aiming to switch by September, starting your preparation and networking now is advisable. The recruitment process can vary in length, but being proactive will give you more time to align opportunities and go through the interview processes.
Applying to a Sector Team: With your background as a generalist, you are not necessarily behind when applying to a sector team. However, it would be beneficial to highlight any specific sector-related projects or deals you've worked on that could align with the team you are interested in. This will demonstrate your ability to adapt and contribute to sector-specific discussions.
Generalist M&A Teams at Bulge Bracket Banks: Many bulge bracket banks in London maintain strong generalist teams. These teams often value diverse experiences, especially from candidates who have a broad understanding across multiple sectors. Your generalist background from the Nordic region could be seen as a strong asset, especially if you've managed to work on a variety of deals.
In summary, starting your preparation now for a September move is wise, and your generalist background can be quite advantageous, both for sector teams and generalist roles. Make sure to tailor your application and networking efforts to highlight your diverse experience and specific sector knowledge where applicable.
