Just lost my internship lead for the summer..any ideas or advice?
It was looking good that I had an internship secured for this summer until about a few days ago when they reached out and said they just couldn't make it happen this summer. Obviously, I'm at a huge loss and freaking out now that I don't know what to do and have nothing secured. I sent out resumes and cold emails to hundreds of firms since I started looking and really don't have anything to fall back on.
I already have one IB internship under my belt, as well as other finance gigs, and am coming from a target. Anybody know of any last minute internships that are open? Thanks...
call up MDs/Directors/VPs from small firms in town that have look (given the size of their team) like they don't usually have an internship program...i just cold-called several of those 1.5 weeks ago and interviewed for two of them on wednesday and got an offer from 1 of the 2
This happened to me the summer before my senior year. I got an internship at a boutique, and they canceled last minute. I ended up just pounding the pavement and calling places from traditional IBs to business brokers. I ended up with an internship at a boutique IB/business broker, where I gained some valuable deal experience. Good luck!
Highly doubt you'll find a "last minute IB internship" opportunity, simply doesn't really exist. You're going to have to create one for yourself and start cold calling. Suggest you also look into other jobs besides IB.
this is a joke (comments above)
there are plenty of opportunities for IB/FO internships however, if you are limiting yourself to one city/country, it might not be great
plenty of opportunities in Germany, Switzerland etc. for example
I know a place that might be taking interns. Shoot me a PM
