Is it possible to go for IB in Paris straight out of an American college?
As a student from a top U.S. university, being fluent in French and with an IB internship in my CV, how are my odds when it comes to securing a spot as an IB analyst in Paris? I don't have an European citizenship, is it even possible to do so?
I know compensation is significantly lower than in the U.S. but I really loved Paris and London when I visited these cities and I believe it would be an enriching experience overall.
Regarding the post titled Are There Good IB Opportunities In London And Paris For The Next 3 Years? just please remove the last sentence of the post, making it:
I'm considering moving to London or Paris (I'm fluent in French) after graduating due to how hard the full-time job market currently is in the U.S. I know that I will be legally allowed to work in London but would still need to do some further research for Paris. I just finished an IB internship at a foreign bank in NY but will not return (headcount + cultural fit). I know that comps are lower in both cities than in NY but I would like more details on other aspect. Career-wise, would that be a viable option or would that close doors if I ever want to come back to the U.S.? I have heard that, in London, banks would only work with much smaller deals, involving U.S. offices with larger deals. Is IB in London and Paris just working as a satellite for the U.S.?
