What did the process of networking look like for you? I struggle with this also from a non-target because my school doesn’t have a strong alumni base in NY.
Did you just cold-LinkedIn individuals? Would love any insights you have into getting networking & being able to break through the resume screen without a target school!
Lmao an AMA because you managed to get an FT offer? Just write your story like everyone else in one post rather than pretending that people care enough to interview you
Lmao I agree. Congrats on the offer but anything u could possibly ask will be searchable on WSO. It’s especially easy breaking into IB as diversity nowadays.
People like you suck, NGMI
Congrats OP and thanks for doing the AMA
Agree here. Congrats to OP but unfortunately breaking into IB isn't nearly as hard as 5-10 years ago now due to analyst shortage and more buy-side firms running their own undergraduate programs now. Have seen too many "broke in from non-target AMA!" posts in the past year lmao.
lmao, anybody with a pulse and ability to know how to do a dcf was hired this year. gtfo, you're not equivalent to those who landed ft offers at lehmans or drexel
