TLDR, search function bro for breaking in from a non target
Edit: No you can't get an SA as a senior, try to lateral in via headhunter from a related industry after 2 years or go to a target grad program
I got an internship at a boutique 1 year after graduation
With smaller firms it's definitely possible.
For internship programs like an SA at a BB, no.
For companies that just hire interns on a case by case basis, yes.
It depends on the company, best bet is boutiques or a seasonal internship.
Yes very possible. They hire based on need, etc and there are many boutiques.
