Chill for another year
That’s crazy work - what bank was this? Should be named. There was a whole issue of MBBs post-poning MBA hires by 6 months and that was a big deal.
It’s going to be extraordinarily tough, given banks have a full class of kids starting FT in 2 months.
Reach out to old contacts and try to get in touch with specific geographic offices. For instance, Menlo offices for tech groups may recruit separately, or in general West Coast. Honestly, best bet would be non-NYC if you’re looking for brand name places - LAZ has a Boston office, bunch of firms have Chicago presence, Houston for O&G.
Do not just assume that your offer will still be there in a year. These guys can go fuck themselves. Start networking and be realistic that a spot may not open for 6 months. You can still chill and do whatever, but don’t just push this off. You’ll feel better that you’re at least doing something about your situation, and you can always still hang and travel while networking.
Second this, what bank?
Second the above, do not assume your offer will be there in a year. Additionally, name and shame!
are they giving you $$$ like mbb did?

So sorry…What firm? Or at least what type of firm?
Damn first I've heard of this in IB. It would be helpful to know the type of bank and region.
It was HSBC
