EXTREMELY non-target Uni with previous IB experience
I had previous IB internship experience outside Europe before gaining admission into a UK master's programme to recruit for London SA without realising (back then) how badly a no-name school would cause an auto-reject regardless of how strong the rest of your application is (I was naively over-confident about the advantage my previous IB experience would confer). I got to learn this the hard way this recruiting season.
I am open to mentorship and any open SA or off-cycle roles at small or large banks that might still exist at this late point in time (hopefully one which sponsors visas; my Msc programme is an online distance-learning programme actually, so I'm not physically based in the UK); be it London or republic of Ireland.
I need any help I can get at this point despite knowing hope for 2023 is thin. If only I could just get a single interview (such as a phone interview or AC) without being screened out due to being in a no-name school, I am confident I can shine; my technicals are strong. I might be rambling in despair but I don't know what else to do.
I do not think that you will be able to land IBD from Salford. Try less competitive roles like back office operations.
Also try Big4. Then lateral from there in your home country.
I hear back-office roles tend not to sponsor

.
Another problem is that the less ambitious the role, the less the likelihood for visa sponsorship......
Do distance learning programs not grant the graduate visa?
1. It is impossible to get into any high finance role from a university like Salford (unless you have 20+ years of experience) and a quick LinkedIn search would’ve revealed that to you.
2. You have already missed the application season for 2023 SA.
3. We’re in a recession, even top candidates are struggling to land IB roles.
I’d suggest you drop out of Salford, do the GRE/GMAT and apply for top business schools for September 2023 or 2024 entry.
Is GMAT required for MSc?
or would it give an added advantage in addition to a good GRE score in Msc applications to target schools?
