Recruiting Advice Full-Time IB

Hey Guys,

I'm an incoming Senior at IU Kelley (non-workshop). I'm a first-generation college student looking to break into IB. WSO has been huge. Navigating the process alone but having the WSO forums has been awesome. Really been helpful.

I am currently interning at Wells Fargo as an ESOP Finance & Advisory intern. I am looking to break into IB. Any advice you might have regarding so?
