Recent Graduate... from a non target school
Any advice would be appreciated...
I graduated in spring 08'and had originally planned on going to law school in the fall however, plans have changed and now I will be delaying for at least a year.
I decided I would take a chance and see if I could get a position as an analyst in New York. Basically I just wanted to know my chances... if I have any chance at pretty much any investment bank, MM, respectable boutique, etc in New York.
I graduated from a decidedly non target school (would have transferred but it was a nonissue due to law school)
Graduated summa in the top 1% with a BS in Econ
no summer internship junior year (again law school) but am completing a summer with the SEC now, and will hopefully work in a similar position for the next year
any chance at all? im certainly not hopeful for places like goldman or merill... and with the market in the shitter I would assume recruiting can't be good... especially for people like me
thanks for any help





The only thing you can
The only thing you can really do now is NETWORKING!!! Open your alumni database and start sending out 1000s of emails and make 100s of calls. I think this is your only chance...good luck!
