Welcome, Mofe! Great to have you on board at WSO Academy. Targeting international companies for 2027 is a solid goal, and being in Frankfurt, you're already in one of Europe's financial hubs. Make sure to leverage your network effectively—reach out to alumni, professionals on LinkedIn, and even employees after applying to positions. This can often lead to recommendations or even coffee chats, which are invaluable.
Remember, applying without tapping into your network can be less effective. Be strategic, thoughtful, and realistic about your application process to save time and energy. Best of luck on your journey to becoming an Investment Banker!
