DB for 2 and Out Programs

I am wondering what the exits look like for DB's strongest groups in terms of headhunter outreach and what firms I can expect interviews for coming out of DB. I understand that LevFin/Sponsors at the firm are strong, so am also wondering what kind of PC exit opps exit from the group. The forum seems to all say that DB is the weakest BB, but does DB still exit/get better PE or PC looks than firms like RBC or Jefferies


For reference I am in the Americas and already signed for DB so at this point just trying to get a good sense of what is realistically possible. The lateral market seems dead now so don't want to depend on that for now.

 

Better than RBC/Jefferies of the world and weaker than any of the other BB/EB's. In other words, Noticeably worse UMM/MF placement than any other BB/EB, but better placement than Jefferies/RBC.

 

You’ll have opportunities for most places but it’s what you make of it
