Hey everyone!
My interview with a boutique got canceled early last week and I have not heard from them for a week now. I have tried to contact the person who had to interview me but he does not respond. I really want to work for the bank so I was wondering what is the best thing to do now. Do I contact someone else at the bank or just wait until they decide to contact me? I am kind of worried they can just forget about me so I wanted to know what is my best option now.

They may have filled the position or decided not to continue your candidacy for whatever reason (more qualified applicants, etc.). Or, maybe they are just busy with actual work right now and plan to reschedule later on.
Could just be someone forgetting. Happens. I'd ping the person you were supposed to interview with.
I did today and I did not receive a response. Should I try contacting someone else in the bank or just wait?
Give at least 36 hours for a response to your email (you didn't mention when you sent it). If you had contact with someone else at the firm, then yes, try them. If not, just cold call the number in the persons email signature. Though, I tend to be more aggressive than most.
