I gO To YaLE
Start with learning the difference betw "whose" and "who's" buddy
lmao Yale kids
Diversity candidates be like
That whole Yale thing, you know...
Ngl you're late in the process, and it also sounds like you have no clue what you're doing. Not looking good for you, at least for next summer.
You’re definitely not too late in the process. But just because you go to Yale doesn’t guarantee an IB job. You need to start learning the technical guides and reaching out to alumni to network. Yale will help you to a certain extent just not all the way.
Your best bet would be to try to get as many off cycle virtual internships (most likely unpaid) next semester, join as many finance clubs as possible, and just grind out recruiting and try to aim get a FT spot. A junior summer internship in IB is highly unlikely but you could probably get a PWM internship at a local spot if you grind asap.
