Make sure you check out AG Edwards and Stern Brothers.

It is not necessarily easier to get a job at a regional firm. They have relatively few jobs, and they prefer people with contacts and experience in the region in which you will be working.

The pay will not resemble pay in New York, but senior bankers in the regions are doing quite well, thank you. Particularly on a cost-adjusted basis.

The work experience should be just great for business school. People in the regions work on smaller deals than the New York houses, but the process is all there, and the experience is all there.
