Junior Transfer for BB
Hey everyone! I will be transferring in the fall as a junior from a top 40 non-target to a top 25 semi-target. The cause for this move is strictly due to a pursuit of A BB or EB 2018 SA position. I have begun networking with alumni at the university I will be transferring to but am worried about awkward conversations with recruiters as to why my resume has half of the info from my previous university. I was positioned to take over as president for the Student Investment Fund which manages 500kish and am also exiting with a 4.0 in Economics, but am not sure how to talk about this. I am currently interning in ER and started an Investment managment fund (60k managed) last year but don't feel like that is competitive enough for BB. I am behind coming from a non-target and wanted to know how I should approach:
1.) My resume
2.) Looking for a Boutique position during the fall to add to my resume
3.) Adding a PWM position to supplement my ER work this summer
4.) Becoming a Wall Street Monkey..
I'd appreciate any thoughts or criticisms, thanks in advance!
You dont need a PWM, ER is good. On your resume have both schools and your GPA for the first one. You dont need a boutique fall internship, focus on prep and networking.
I think your profile is solid. Just make sure that there is more to you than finance.
Thanks Persian! My concern is that students already at the university will have an advantage in terms of sustained relationships, exec positions in clubs, and better experience. Not sure how to leap frog all of that..
Experience wise you seem fine. You are right on the relationship side but there is nothing you can do about that other than being amicable. In my experience, networking works best when your appreciative, curious, ask good questions, and can also talk about non-finance subjects
Really appreciate the thoughts. Flying out to L.A. to network with alumni, best go to conversation? Sports get old..
Best thing you could do is ask them how to get the most out of campus life the next 2 years, that will open up lots of different conversations
Right, thanks a ton!
There's always going to be someone who started before you with better stats and more experience. Don't let it hold you back. Just focus on how you can make your profile the best it can be.
