Where to go from here - Dinged from my 3rd superday.
So I have been dinged from my 3rd superday, I attend a non-target, and my recruiting season is over. Where do I go from here? What other options for ibanking do I have? Any? I thought most of my interviews went well and I was able to answer questions correctly and thought my personality was able to come through. I am willing go anywhere to be a banker, I work really freaking hard (also a D-1 athlete) and I am actually not concerned with exit opportunities. Any help or advice is appreciated! Feel free to pm me or write on the thread. Thanks WSO!
Dinged from 3 superdays? ouch! Did you ask what got you dinged? How many firms did you apply to? Recruiting season is not officially over.
Hey Man,
I was a non-target and got dinged from a handful of superdays. At the time I honestly thought the world was over and now when I look back on it, I can't belive I got that stressed out. Anyway, first thing is take a small break from all the recruiting stuff, get your mind off it, and have a little fun. When you get back to it, maybe open your options up a little. Look into F500 positionsor consulting or something.....maybe even a reputable start-up.... Also look into MM banks if you are that set on banking as they do off-cycle hiring a lot more, which is what I ended up getting....honestly, banking sucks and I'm sure when you get your job you'll realize how crazy you were for wanting this so badly haha.
I had phone interviews at about 12 bb's and 3 superdays...I was told that there are more qualified candidates 3 times.
Hey, I'm in the same boat as you, it's a pretty shitty situation.
Thinking about law school or staying an extra semester to go through OCR again.
there aren't even 12 BB's...but ok.
Sorry. 8 BBs, BMO, Jefferies, Rbc, Rbs, and are not BB...Places I would have loved to work at though...
Apply to safety jobs, back office, f500, consulting. Whatever you do, just find a job for now and lock it in.
Don't go to law school, the job market there sucks even more. You might just face the same situation or worse in two/three years. http://www.slate.com/id/2272621/
Next spring, banks that didnt recruit might come back for leftovers. Hopefully you won't have to resort to that. Good luck.
