Honestly a lot of the people are kinda arrogant/dickish, but who wouldn't be when you got some of the best people in the Berkeley business community. Acceptance rate IB/Finance/Consulting recruiting. I will get more into that below.īusiness Frats: Pledge classes range from 6-14 people. In terms of whether recruiting is dictated by the clubs you are in, I will say that the main benefit is having alumni pull for you with some clubs having a strong foothold in specific banks and groups. Other than that we usually don't send many people to PE, mostly to MM PE shops if any but I do know a senior going to a MF. The number of people going to EBs have definitely risen in the past few years though. Historically we mostly place people into BB with a handful to EBs. Although there is a definite bias towards West Coast offices and tech groups here, there's not that much hindering you if you're shooting for NY. I can confidently say we are a target for all West Coast banks while being a semi-target for East Coast banks. I will start with an overview of Berkeley and the recruiting environment. Along with that, I will try to keep the information objective but will definitely add color to the description of these clubs based on my own opinions and public perception. Just some disclaimers before I start I thought about posting non-anonymously but some of this information I will disclose is very revealing and I know some of my peers definitely browse this forum. Introduction: In response to my comment on the 'UMich Undergrad For IB Recruiting Post', I am making this post to talk about recruiting for IB at UC Berkeley.
