I had a couple of questions regarding SA recruiting, hoping someone can answer..
After the 1st round interview, is it a level playing field for all?
How many people should one network with at each BB/MM bank to have a good chance at a first round? (assuming good GPA + solid internships)
Are GPA cutoffs for schools like Wharton, Stern, uMich where everyone wants to do banking higher than 3.5?
