soph with no IB offer: what do I do?
I go to Mich (Econ) and no offer. Hundreds of calls and emails. It feels like the only thing I have left is SMBC and Piper Sandler. What do I do?

give it your best shot for those two. Getting your foot in the door is most important, and you can always find something from there
+ many processes are still running, I'm sure you can last minute network your way into some of these
How do you suppose I go about this?
if you get an interview at any of those, really grind your required techs and prcatice your behaviorals to the best of your ability
otherwise, just do the classic stuff, keep reaching out, cold-emailing, any alumni would help, etc
You have to continue to reflect and improve while going fourth. How many first rounds were you able to? What about Superdays? If your conversion rate is poor, then you have to see figure out what can be improved. Generally, it's luck related but if you can't convert, for example, 5 first rounds to 2-3 superdays, then something can be improved.
get piper and rerecruit if needed
I would just give up bro. That’s what I did and I finally could feel again. I can’t wait to be fully healed from this. I’m on my way to becoming renewed.
Analyst 1?
Ignore title. Am now at a senior position at XVideos (say what you want). Leaving banking is the best decision I have made to this day.
Stop posting on WSO and put your energy into the two banks you listed. Tired of seeing people crying on here
