Summer Consultant Segments Investment Banking Recruiting Market
New York, NY:  Summer Consultant Bob Slydell T'07 caused quite a stir inside the Ivory Tower at the Tuck School of Business last week.  Strategy has been called the "fortress" of the Tuck School, and Slydell's brilliant segmentation of investment banks proves that Tuck continues its proud tradition of producing thought leaders in strategic vision. 

Classmates, professors and career services administrators spent hours contemplating the segmentation analysis made available exclusively to the Tuck Profit (and reproduced on this page).  Future bankers pulled all-nighters attempting to prove to their classmates that the bubble representing their bank was in fact positioned more favorably than other bubbles, and that Slydell's analysis confirms the superiority of their employment offers.  Several resourceful students emailed the picture to their colleagues on Wall Street, requesting help from the more tech-savvy analysts and production department personnel. 

While some future consultants expressed bitterness over the large signing bonuses offered to their banker classmates, most were simply happy to be returning to the Upper Valley for one final year in the hotbed of intellectual activity that is the Tuck School.

As the fall recruiting season approaches, bringing with it career anxiety and confusion about the myriad of potential employers, you can bet that many future finance professionals will be carrying a copy of this handy segmentation slide in their suit pocket, or perhaps a digital version on their BlackBerry.
