Summer Internship - Still Searching
Hi everyone,
So, I'm still searching for a summer internship… I got two or three interviews, none of which worked out. Applied to many jobs, called hedge funds, networked, etc.
I am at non-target with a non-finance pure science degree, but I took econ/fin classes since the past year. Still… I must be doing something wrong.
I got some feedback: one found me too aggressive, the other not enough. Ah.
Anyway, I don't want to pass too much time on this. I have about 2-3 weeks to settle something or else - to call it off for this year. At this point, it's more like anything goes, right ?
My plan :
- call boutique investment, hedge funds or wealth management firms in my city + the closest, bigger city
- scout for non-IB-or-related jobs at banks
- hope and pray for something to fall on my lap
I would LOVE some advice about what should my top three priorities to settle an internship for the summer be, as we are quite far in the game.
Thank you,
HD
I'm in a similar situation, mate. Finance major in an extreme non-target. Sent like 800 cold e-mails, resulted in like 70 informational interviews and two actual interviews that didn't go too well. Thinking of switching strategy and targeting equity research/Asset Management. Any advice?
