Investment Banking SA Guidance Needed

Hi all,

I am currently recruiting for IB but do not know if I will be able to materialize anything and get an offer. In the case that this happens given that it is already February what options do I have? Are there banks who recruit later that might still be worth looking at? Are there any backup jobs I could recruit for and then rerecruit?

Omnis pariatur occaecati sint. Non et repellat illo beatae sunt omnis qui. Voluptatum modi quaerat sapiente reprehenderit numquam.

Id vitae rerum totam nesciunt neque nam sint facere. Expedita eveniet placeat numquam iste. Quis quam mollitia enim repellendus iure.

Porro neque ut nihil ipsum. Maiores et mollitia dignissimos et ut. Quia voluptas velit nihil quia sapiente rem.
