No one understands banking recruiting

Like I’m in a frat that’s probably why I’m in my senior year I just want to be done with recruiting so I can enjoy the year and my room mates on my dick for not going out, mean while most our seniors last year are unemployed he does not understand it’s a grind, stem major what should I do

Some ppl will never get it - that’s fine. You can’t save everyone nor should you bother trying.


Segment and compartmentalise your friends. Friends for life, friends for fun, friends for grinding together. Gym friends, sports friends. 

Very rare you find a 1 of 1 person that has the exact same mindset as u

 

he is a grinder just did his grinding earlier on so cannot really relate. Says I am not being efficient enough while there may be some truth to that, I am not a perfect human being can only try you know. You make a good point though 

 

Some people aren’t meant to ‘grind’ and you’ll never know why. They possibly might not care or already have a job offer via their family connects. Point is, you’re doing this for yourself so you should focus on your goals. Allocate some friends to partying and some for the ‘grind’. Let ppl think what they want, they won’t be paying your bills.

 

In a similar spot but more of in a seperate country wanting to explore but still unemployed.
