Is it too late for me?
Graduated last May from a non-target with a 3.7 GPA. Have combined two years of experience doing equity research at HF and valuation-type work at VC. Thought I was going to get Full time at the HF but it didn't work out, covid was a big factor in this. Got an internship last summer at VC that extended into fall, left on my own accord as it didnt seem a good fit.
After graduation started actively applying to all roles involving any kind of equity research. No hits. Have shifted now to primarily IB analyst roles (ECM and M&A), and sell side equity research. Not many positions open from what I see but im finding a few here and there, networking and applying. Doing Interview Prep and WSO excel courses on the side.
The thing is if any roles are open they are for candidates with traditional IB experience, or they are 2023 analyst programs. And I don't have traditional IB experience, and want to work starting this fall, not summer of 2023, and would they even consider me as I have already graduated?
Going to continue utilizing my network, prepping, and applying, but would appreciate any advice from WSO. Thanks.
