How to land a junior summer sell-side ER internship?
I am interested in any advice anyone can give regarding the best way(s) to try and land a sell-side ER internship. I recently completed a summer analyst role at an asset management firm that does not give out FT offers. Is there any way I can leverage this experience to land an ER junior summer internship (2022) on the sell side? Any advice is welcomed, thanks!
Hi sirving1818, hope I can help. Do any of these links cover what you're looking for:

Not sure what kind of answer you're expecting apart from put it on your resume, network and apply?
Basically was wondering if anyone has had a similar experience and could share some reccomendations.
Idk if I'm missing something but there doesn't seem to be anything particularly special about this scenario. You got a sophomore internship in a relevant industry, now you're applying for a junior one? Isn't that what everyone does?
Never said there was anything special. I was just explaining my situation and was being open to any and all recommendations.
Okay fair enough. I don't think there's really much difference to ER recruiting than IB recruiting (which obviously has much more literature). Maybe write a research report or two as part of your networking efforts.
okay so apart from everyone saying that it’s the same, there are actually a couple differences -
The networking strategy can be different. You NEED NEED NEED to have one, two, or three pitches that are well formulated to submit to your contacts when networking. It’s a great conversation starter and will go a long way. Your pitches will literally follow you from first contact to very last interview
Get deep on one or two sectors in order to display you can gain an abnormally strong handle on an area. It’s not about transactions like in IB, it’s all about recent news and drivers of equity share prices specifically
Don’t be afraid to reach out to a few MD’s specifically - but make sure you have a prior connection to the group before doing so
From there, it’s standard - network, get referrals, etc
Cannot stress how important a KILLER stock pitch is
