I know this has been asked before on here, but just wanted to get a up to date opinion. If you have a internship at a finance company, did real work (not just printed and got coffee), are not part of a program (got it through connections), and there are no defined summer analysts at the firm, is it ok to use Summer Analyst as the title?
Just asking because I see a lot of people using either or for pre Junior year internships.

You want to put down "Summer Analyst" because it has more preftige, right?

summer managing director sounds more professional to me tbh
Summer Analyst is fine. My school's career center advises that.
If finance, its always fine.
If accounting, its prob better to put intern.
I agree, do analyst especially if its IBD/S&T related.
If you worked on basic tasks in excel I recommend summer monkey. In all seriousness it doesn’t matter. I don’t look at your ‘role title’ I look at the firm and what you’ve done
