Hello all,
I am a current sophomore hoping to work in IB for this upcoming summer. I have been doing my best to network, apply for internships, and make connections in order to land a role for next summer, but I have been having a tough time.
For reference, I am at a top target, 3.9 GPA, and two semi-relevant finance internships. What am I doing wrong/what can I be doing better? Thank you in advance.
