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?
