Having a real tough time

Hey whats up guys,

Just had 4 superdays for S&T at BB in the last two weeks, got dinged the first three and now waiting to hear on the fourth (will get decision on friday). I have been hustling since August of last year to land these interviews as I go to a complete non-target. Lost a family member throughout the time as well so it has really been a main focus for me to obtain something for the summer. If I am not able to get anything with the next decision, what should I do? All of the boutiques have just about wrapped up so I am not sure as to what I can possibly do now other than hope that I get the offer on Friday. Anyone know of any boutiques that are looking still for NYC? I didnt fuck up a single technical and proved that I was hungry, but it sucked always participating in the non-target superday as there are fewer spots to compete for.

Any help will be great, really down in the dirt right now.

Sorry for your loss... Have you tried broker-dealers? What about prop-trading? I think these guys will be interviewing until April or even May...

And, even if you are good, there just might be somebody better than you or somebody with good connections...
