How hard/competetive is it to get an analyst job with NYC's investment banks (i.e Goldman, MS, Lehman...)?

Right now I am a finance grad working in the Philadelphia area as a mutual fund accountant. I'm considering making the move to NYC to gain more experience in investment banking, capital markets, securities etc. There doesn't seem to be too many options here in Phila. Is it hard to get an analyst job in...

It is competaive. It all depends on your school, your experience and what level you think you are going to come in at.

You can always do one of the lesser banks (like JP Morgan) and then transfer in a few years.
