Internship Paths

Hey I'm currently an underclassman looking for an internship at a boutique IB or pwm in NYC area. Anybody have any tips/ success stories they can share?

I want to stay motivated at this point lol.

Thanks!

Also for underclassmen internships, does being at a target matter

For Investment Banks at least, most firms are probably done recruiting, even for boutiques. You should still reach out though since there might very likely be some left.

I know a guy who very recently got an internship after a 20 min call with the MD. This kid wasn't a great conversationalist either and had no relevant experience. If he was able to do it I'm pretty sure anyone can.

If you want to get into a good IBD analyst program then it's almost necessary to find relevant experience for your sophomore summer.

I'm in a rush, sorry for my grammar.
