Honestly just done

Made it to 3 SDs. Didn’t get an offer from any. It’s late may, and I think I might just fucking throw in the towel I’m done Literallt have grinded calls studied technicals worked connections, prepped behaviorals done so many interviews since February and I have failed every single god damn time. It’s end of may now and I think I might just be better off as a fucking executive assistant since I’m so used to getting fucked in the ass. Fuck finance fuck life

That attitude won't get you anywhere. Treat it like a numbers game going in and you'll be much better off. It took me 5 Super Days before offers because I was also late on my OCR(Got my offer after Late May if that's what you're worried about lol). Good luck.
