Would you look outside of NYC? I know there are some regional banks that are still decent and would probably love a Stern person - these banks are by no means BBs, but I have friends that worked there and went to Leh, JPM etc for FT

 

seriously you never networked in your three years at Stern? I find that hard to beleive since Stern has an excellent alumni network and you live in NYC. Anyways, thats your best right now to contact alums absolutely everywhere and hope for the best.

...and will continue looking for people even through the spring. These places actually have a very hard time locating good people because their recruiting efforts are so much more limited than BBs.

Use alumni networking and take advantage of Stern's alumni... I guarantee some of them will be at smaller banks.

Make a list of everyone you know, and figure out who's most closely related to finance/investment banking. Start contacting them and asking about open positions they know of, or if they know anyone who might know of them.

Once you've contacted all of them, turn to Stern's career center and figure out which alumni are in the field. Explain your situation and again see if they know of any positions or know of anyone who might.

 

you don't need the help of the career centre to find alumni from Stern. Go look at the regional/MM bank list on the Ibanking Bullpen forum and visit each of the websites for the different banks in NY. Literally every single one should have a stern graduate working there so reach out to them.
