Need good advice - really down after this recruiting cycle
Hey all,
This recruiting cycle has been disastrous for me. I had over 500 networking calls since September and yet I do not have a single offer at hand. Has been on my grind since sophomore year. But it seems I cannot convert any offer. Had a number of superdays at BBs even with GS. Still waitlisted. Call me your "waitlist guy" now because I will never get off it. I really do not know what to do. Seems like my shot at IBD is gone. What are other career paths that will still be available after IBD recruiting is over? I know BLK recruits in September but that is about it...
500 networking calls??? Really? Can you explain and/or double-check that number???
If you missed your own number in your own OP then maybe attention to detail is killing your chances?
Yes, I had 513 calls and you are very helpful man. Appreciate it. Hope all is going well for you.
Note: I am asking for advice, not your opinion. If you do not believe me, just do not reply...
You are consistently demonstrating why the firms were correct in not hiring you. No attention to detail, inability to take correction. I think recruiting went just the way it should have for you.
Thanks. Knowing that there are people like you in the industry makes me feel a little better.
Hey if you think I'm being hard on you, it gets A LOT tougher than this - I'm taking it easy on you! I'm just a guy on a message board asking you to double-check a number and you react poorly. Imagine when your boss yells at you for putting a bad number down and jeopardizing a deal? You'd probably run out of there like a little girl!!!
Let me help you out kid - here's a better answer: "You're right, I meant to write down 50 calls, my mistake". See how easy that is?
The companies are doing you a favor by not hiring you, you are not ready.
LMAO you are still around… you are not even in IB keyboard warrior
Lmao pretty sure this guy is like BO or MO, OP. Not a real investment banker.
