Currently recruiting for SA 28 as a sophomore at NYU Stern not being in any good clubs. It feels almost impossible to get a Stern undergrad to respond to cold emails. If anyone successfully recruited out of Stern without clubs I would really appreciate any insight on how you went about it.

how many emails have you sent out yet & whats the response rate?
sent out ~250 with 4-5% response rate. TBH first 60% of those was with a terrible resume format, but since fixing it my response rate has barely improved if at all.
Thar response rate is not even bad, that's typical. You just havent sent out enough emails. Theres people sending out thousands. And why email only NYU? Literally find anyone you can make a connection with.
Sounds about right, the people get an offer without clubs sends the most emails! Keep it up:)
you mean it’s hard for Stern alumni to respond? How helpful r these clubs is it mainly for networking?
clubs are pretty critical for networking at Stern, so people are a lot less likely to respond if you weren't in their club which is my issue

Bro I’ve been there I was only in few business club… anyways I landed an offer and everything is gonna fine
What if I went to Western and did not get into top clubs
Northwestern? Lowkey even at nyu stern I’ve seen many cases of students getting the offer without clubs. Clubs r valuable bc of alumni networks but you can prep urself for recruiting

clubs are just one path, lots of stern grads broke in without them
