Call a few small firms in whatever state you are in to get a feel of what firms are looking for from you.
Do you have any previous work experience?
Yes, I'm prior military. I've been told IB does not emphasize technical skills. Rather, they're looking for students who can put in the long hours.
Post this under the Investment Banking Forum (more people will see it that way).
Long hours mean a lot. The thing that matters most is being teachable and coachable.
If you’re a freshman then no one is gonna have you work long hours
If I'm a veteran, will they reconsider
