How do you land a Tiger Cub for sophomore summer, yet strike out in banking interviews for junior summer?
cant think of much but I had a very difficult semester with family problems, my gpa dropped to around 3.5 before recruiting as well and besides that I dont think my superdays were bad i just feel like you cant make a single error if you expect an offer nowadays
He networked with his father and they connected him to the fund.
Haha, wish I had a dad in finance, would have made the process much easier
Take your IB offer and lateral later on.
Take offer and keep recruiting. Reneging isn’t the end of the world
this is true but where is still open that would be worth reneging? should i focus on getting a more prestigious asset management jr summer (given some are still open) even though I want to work in banking FT?

Tiger cub soph summer ez means ur chillin you will get looks everywhere forFT regardless of ur jr summer. Just a question, how tf did you get a tiger cub? Is it only school connect, club connect or cold email?
mix of school connect club connect and cold emailing. the interview process is laborious (I spoke to about 5 members of the firm before offer). They will ask you filthy questions and focus more on how smart you are than actual finance technicals (unlike superdays)
if you get a return internship from tiger cub then 100% renege, either way accept this MM offer and look to renege later
You couldve just asked your dad for the internship man. Props to you for doing it on your own
