Yes
thanks for the honesty
accept whatever role you have to start saving cash, who knows when you'll land your desired role (could be 3/6/12/18 months)
this prevents at least the regret of having spent all those months in a room not doing much besides stressing about getting a job, and probably you could also not make it and fall into something that you initially could have done.
save cash, apply on the side, and hope for the best. that's what a mature person would do
I appreciate the response .As of right now that is none so i am the step of figuring out what i should be doing ,i would assume you are saying i should just cast a wide net.
I would dedicate 1 month applying to jobs/networking with purpose (not lame requests) as if it was a 16 hour work shift. Then, if nothing comes up, I might get any job with at least some finance exposure to it and continue doing what I was doing before. Probably would also go to some MO/BO roles in a bank, so could get referred internally for better things
but role/experience > brand
All you can do is put your head down and go to work. Get a job, any job tangentially in finance, and prepare for interviews all the time. After 1 year of working start applying to places again and be ready to crush in any interview. Record yourself answering behaviorals, technicals, etc. and watch them. It may be awkward but opportunities are more idiosyncratic when you are no longer campus recruiting. For lateral analyst they can hire someone between ages 22-26 doing almost any accounting, valuation, research etc. (i.e., the applicant pool is bigger than before) so you need to be the one they choose among the hundreds that apply.
I appreciate your response , so my understanding is i should just start applying to any and every finance related role is your take ?
Yes, if you're 21 and you don't already have life completely figured out it's already completely totally over
