Bonus announcements were delayed this year as banks waited to see… what every other bank was going to pay.

The Investment Banking Cover Letter Template You’ve Been Waiting For

A long time ago I said that we would never post a cover letter template here:

“I was tempted to post a Word template, but I don’t want 5,000 daily visitors to copy it and to start using the same exact cover letter.”
