Washed Out of 2026 Cycle - What Now?
I underwent multiple processes at BB's and EB's, hell even some intl' firms and nothing came to fruition. I'm simply asking what to do now?
Background: Technically & Behaviorally very sound 3rd year @ non-target w a 3.8.
I've been extremely procative in taking every ounce of feedback available to me & learning as much from my failures. What would experienced folks recommend me do. ANY advice helps.
I'm even considering taking roles for my 2025 Summer in adjacent finance roles to be arm's shot away and network in person, as "Pursuit of happiness" esque as that sounds. I want this.
Thanks.
why didnt you try any MM stuff??
Maybe consulting?
You could potentially go for an MBA if you can afford it. Especially with a good GPA and if you can score a decent GMAT sore you could land an MBA at a target school, though without many relevant internships it'll be tough, but it will open doors for recruiting opportunities.
Easy route would be to transfer to a target, reclass a year and rerecruit next year.
Can also go MBA route or Masters in Finance
I'm a third yr , I don't think it's feasable atp
