Throwaway account just in case.
I currently have a FT offer at a mid-tier MM. I knew I wanted to lateral after the summer, as all the talent was leaving and it seemed like a sinking ship with no opportunities down the road. I feel so depressed to go back there...
After the summer I had superdays at GS, JPM, and DB, but didn't get the offer at any of those firms. But I was so close that I feel like I can do it with another shot.
I am seriously considering going through the full-time recruiting process again to get a better offer in NY. If I get something, I'll renege. If I don't, I'll just start full time at my current firm.
Or would you guys recommend just working for 1 year and lateraling asap?
Thoughts?
