No return offer - UPDATE.

I did not get a return offer from my IB internship this past summer. Please refer to my post here:

Initially, as you can tell in that post I was devastated. But, I also decided to reassess exactly what I wanted to do. I’m super happy to share with everyone (and also give hope to those who also didn’t get returns) that today, I have signed an offer for my dream role at an EB. I love the team, the prospect of the work I’ll be doing, and the pay, which has a base higher than what I would’ve gotten if I had gone back to my other bank :)

I can’t express enough how good it feels to conquer the odds despite how shitty the entire experience was in not getting a return and the work environment which I was in (not going to go into that).

Getting the interview happened to be a luck of the draw, so I’m sorry I can’t be helpful on that front. But I killed it and dedicated myself to doing well in those interviews.

That said, I am really sorry to all those who did not get a return and I SEE YOU. You just have to keep your head up. I’m more than happy to chat over private messages! I can only speak to my experience. Just thought I’d share some good vibes and that there is hope :)
