Based on previous WSO threads, it's clear that the recruitment timeline for internships, especially in high-demand fields like Investment Banking (IB), has been accelerating. While IB recruiting for summer 2025 might already be over, there could still be opportunities in Asset Management (AM) and other sectors.

Here are some steps you can take:

  1. Networking: Reach out to professionals in the AM industry. Networking can sometimes open doors to opportunities that aren't widely advertised.
  2. Boutique Firms: Consider applying to smaller or boutique firms. They often have different recruiting timelines and might still have openings.
  3. Career Services: Utilize your university's career services. They often have connections and can provide information on firms that are still recruiting.
  4. Online Job Boards: Regularly check job boards and company websites for new postings. Some firms might have rolling applications or late openings.

If you haven't been active in networking recently, now is a good time to re-engage with your contacts and seek advice or referrals. Good luck!
