Please help - Not sure what to do next?
Hi Guys,
I'm sure you get this question a lot, but I have gotten desperate enough to decide to personally ask it and hope for some fresh idea or something to renew my sense of hope.
I have been a financial analyst at AIG since I graduated as a finance major from a non-target 2 years ago. My GPA wasn't great (3.0) - which defintely sells me short, because I'm a lot smarter than that and very good quantitatively. For a little over a year now, I have been desperately trying to get into banking - not being picky, I'm interested in anything from credit risk to bond origination. I'm willing to forgo my 2 years of professional experience and start fresh as a first year analyst or even trading assistant!
I feel like I have done everything possible for so long and haven't gotten so much as a look for any positions outside of audit. Submitting resume/coverletters through a website portal seems a waste of time. I've been on countless coffee dates, reached out to friends, headhunters. Anything that i can think of. I try to run with any lead I am given, no matter how small, but always seem to hit a dead end. (Most recently, coffee with a VP at a BB landed me an interview - only to be told that this company is on a hiring freeze indefintely a few days prior to the interview)
I do not know what to do. I've been chugging along like this for a while now, very despondent. Any fresh ideas any of you could bring to the table would be greatly appreciated - even if all it does is restore my drive on this marathon of a job search.
Thanks in advance!
