Still Searching for SA

I've had a couple interviews and a superday but still no offers. All my interviews have passed and i still have nothing lined up for the summer. I was wondering what's still available...should i start looking for internships in the finance departments of companies? I'm starting to get desperate

Yes, you should absolutely broaden your reach. It is better to have something somewhat related to IBD rather than nothing at all.

Good luck! Patrick

Look into everything

big 4 ( preferably TS or SF) consulting local boutiques( probably bitch work and unpaid) or F500 finance departments ( you dont do much here either)
