Running Out of Time...Internship Opportunities

Hey, I was just looking for a little direction in my internship search. I am a sophomore with a pretty good academic record, but sorely lacking in related experience. This is my resume for the record http://www.razume.com/documents/18390 . I applied for all the big banks and on campus recruiting opportunities, but they were limited and I either got rejected or screwed up the interview. Where should I look now? I am interested in Sales and Trading/AM in the long run...should I look for a boutique bank or just look for a financial internship in F500 company? If F500, what companies should I look at? Thanks a lot.

Start with GE if you're looking into F500. They have some of the best training out there. More importantly, look for something in a field you're truly interested in....

The answer to your question is 1) network 2) get involved 3) beef up your resume 4) repeat -happypantsmcgee WSO is not your personal search function.
