No Chance?
Hey everyone, I am a senior with a 3.75 gpa graduating in May from a non-target. My only "internship" experience is marketing/bringing clients in/etc at a luxury car dealership. I've applied to about 30 banks, but my overall networking has been less than stellar.
The more research I do, the more I realize that I don't stand a chance of breaking into investment banking. I really just don't know what to do. Does it look hopeless for me? I don't know what else in finance to look into.
Sorry for taking the "woe is me" route. Thanks in advance for the advice.
No worries you still have a chance to break in: 1. Look at Master in Finance programs (Europe & US) 2. Start Networking to find a boutique which will give you an internship 3. Take a gap year and do several internships and then go for MSF 4. Start applying to roles at Big 4 or other finance related roles and try to lateral after 1-3 years.
That may be the case, which is why I would advise you to go for an MSF.
