i got so unbelievably lucky in recruiting

I'm a student at a semi-target with zero finance club involvement, yet I just landed what I’d consider a pretty solid BB offer. I only did about 20 networking calls throughout the entire semester because I (delusionally) thought I was going to land something else in public equities.

I have no idea how I even got past the HireVue to get the Superday, but I’m just so happy and feel incredibly blessed.
