I'm an incoming sophomore studying in a state school in the southeast, where very few alumni currently work in IB. I've tried reaching out to those few alumni through LinkedIn and haven't gotten a response. I have also resorted to reaching out to people that work in firms that interest me and still no response. Do you have any advice for my situation?
