Feel stuck at cap markets

Currently wrapping up 2nd year at a BB

Feel like I am incredibly behind — we do 0 financial analysis and we just spread comps all days. 

Tried lateraling to coverage earlier in the year, got a few final rounds and case studies but all struck out. 

Wondering if I should try my luck at MM places? What are some alternative paths outside of the banking that cap markets can lead to?
