Market is just dead rn for grad hiring in IBD. All you can do is network a ton, keep in touch with your existing contacts, keep your technicals up and hope something lands. Rooting for you, you'll overcome this!
I get it. This job situation consumes my thoughts as soon as I wake up until when I'm going to sleep. I just want it to be over. I feel sick thinking about the opportunity I lost out on from my bank this summer and wish every day that I could turn back time to early June lol :-)
We need a support group for interns that didn't get offers and need to recruit in this godforsaken job market lmao
Like 70% of grads are in the same situation as you. If that makes you feel any better. Onwards and upwards!
Life isn’t fair. Get over it.
Shut up goofy
Feeling this as a recent grad. At least you have 8 more months of runway.
Remember you got the summer internship for a reason, keep going.
Could I PM you? I’m in a extreme dilemma similar to your situation
Hey man, same situation as you, didn't get a return due to issue unrelated to my performance. I loved the team and they really liked me too. What's worse is that they just told me this week - now I'm just jumping on to FT scene but we'll get through it together!
I know the MM firm I’m at (Santander) is recruiting quite actively and so are a few others. If you are applying actively to MM shops there are a few more still open and recruiting.
Is base really 85k?
Dont know who told you that but its significantly more
What are the reason? If it’s a fuck up outside of work then that’ll hurt your chances
I think a lot of LMM are hiring
Do you mind sharing some names? Havent really seen any on my side :(
Apply for internship again
