IB Local Boutique Internships

Hello, WSO community!

As a class of 2025 sophomore who is preparing for 2024 summer internships, it would be great to hear from my peers and senior bankers about how you land an internship at a local boutique investment bank, and what is your job search strategy. I'm actively looking for an internship at a boutique bank as well, so any comment will be highly appreciated!
