Lost FT offer for the re recruiting - help needed

Hi WSO. I graduated recently and was set to start this month at a MM firm in NYC this month. I was recruiting / in another FT process at another firm, and today I got a call from my firm notifying me that they are reneging my offer - I’m confident it is due to my interviews at another firm as I recently spoke to 4+ people at the other firm and the call came recently after my last round. I knew I should not of been doing this and waited and regret it. What should I do? I signed my offer last summer and now have no job. Any advice would greatly help I have never been this lost

First off sorry this happened, what was the firm you were interviewing at?

If I were in your shoes I’d start emailing every single contact of mine and every single boutique IB shop under the sun and pray for a look.

 

had an offer pulled for headcount reasons : (. what firms are even doing superdays now im struggling to even find postings for new grads

 

Would hesitate to say it is a “stupid game” to play. I’d consider it stupid only if the firm interviewed at was not materially better of an option than the offer op currently has.
