Need advice - Potential strange path to IB
Hi everyone, today, I was rejected after a super day at aMMfirm that I thought would be my best shot of breaking intoIB. I have taken a shotgun approach to the recruiting process and have focused my efforts onNYCand another smaller city. I made deep connections at two firms: one inNYC,另一个是拒绝了我。我问d for advice from two of the interviewers that I trust the most, and I am hopeful that they are able to provide areas to improve on for the future. I thought the super day went overall well, but I guess not, so I want to get their advice so that I do not make the same mistakes in the future.
Realistically, I do not think that I will be able to break intoNYCat this point, so I am hoping that you all can provide some guidance if I do not get a super day at theNYCfirm.The kicker is that I leave for my study abroad in 5 days which I know is the absolute worst timing imaginable.I will network my ass off at the localMMfirms that I applied to but if that fails here are potential options:
- Network at local small boutiques and hope to land aSArole to lateral elsewhereFT
- Do commodities trading (at a good shop) for a summer and try to break intoIBfrom there
- Corp dev at a F500 and try forFTIB
- and the weirdest...intern inVC....which is the least likely option, but still
- Other (TAS, etc)
The bad: Non-target 3.5 GPA
The good: Decent experience and great ECs, and from what I have been told from networking, a relatable personality
I will reach out to my cousin who is an MD at aMM公司的建议,但我不想用裙带关系to break into his firm - especially since I have not been in contact with him for years. Any thoughts on what route is best ifMMrecruiting fails?
