Dumb question re: Simpson Thacher
This is a dumb question to the point where I sort of want the mods to delete/lock it once there's been an answer.
Does STB hire lateral lawyers? It's weird because I go on the website and it says to just email someone to inquire. Just seems weird and unconventional whereas the default is some job listings that give you a good sense of what positions are available.

Somewhat dumb question, but yes, STB hires laterals.

Re: Dumb question re: Simpson Thacher
OP here.
So... do you just email them and say hey, uh you got any capital markets openings? lol.
I actually work across the table with some STB folks and I think they've seen I'm competent and well liked by the client. Not sure if I can somehow leverage that <shrug>.

Re: Dumb question re: Simpson Thacher
I'm an STB lateral. My team has quite a few laterals. I found out about it through a recruiter, but no idea if/where it was posted publicly. The firm offers referral bonuses also, so it's really not a delicate topic.

Re: Dumb question re: Simpson Thacher
For what it's worth, I'm a junior & have heard cap markets is crazy busy. Obviously not privy to lateral hiring info but I would be surprised if we weren't hiring.
