How to succeed as a 2021 MBA Summer Associate Intern - virtual edition
Hola Monkeys,
I recently got the offical communication from a NYC based BB stating that the MBA Summer Associate program is going to be virtual. There might be an option to come into the office starting late July, however that is still under evaluation. I was wondering if any of you folks have suggestions on how to succeed in a virtual internship - and most importantly secure a return offer. Would appreciate any insides on best practices in terms of "gelling" with the team over zoom and getting a real IBD experience.
Congratulations on your internship offer!
Speaking from experience, I believe that the following are some good tips for your virtual internship:
The rest will depend on the type of internship that you will have and whether you will do actual client work or not. Let me know if you have any questions.
Regardless of what happens, good luck and enjoy this great experience!
Honestly, unless you're trying to switch into other groups, don't worry too much about networking virtually. Just try to be as helpful and available as possible for the associates that you're assigned to and you'll be set. If you've made their lives easier for the past 9 weeks, they will 100% vouch for you.
This. Don't be overly aggressive as you would during recruiting. Rather, just try to do what you were told and be available whenever (to associate of course, but also analyst). If you are in one of the better culture banks/groups, that should not be hard at all.
Been through an MBA summer program and overseen a few myself. Your Bible is as follows:
