Boutique Offer

Hello,

I wanted to give a shoutout to all the users and WSO for helping me get a boutique offer for this summer. I am notoriously bad at interviewing, but after several rejections from firms I managed to get an offer from a boutique. Although its not located in a major financial city like NYC or Chicago, I am overjoyed to have landed an internship in banking. I wanted to thank WSO and the amazing network of people that have answered my questions on the site. Although I'm far from getting a high caliber internship for junior year, or even a full time offer, I am glad to have gotten something. I had a pretty rough year, and getting rejected several times in a row I was considering whether this career was still possible for me. Securing this offer is an important stepping stone in my undergrad experience, and I wish everyone the best of luck in their pursuits. Keep trying no matter what, and if its meant to be it will work out.

Congrats! WSO helps me a lot, too. Been 2 days since my M&A boutique internship started and I absolutely love the work! I felt lucky I knew about this site when I was freshman.
