For those of you who graduated college what was the path you took during freshman/soph/junior year to put yourself in the best position for a FT offer in Finance?
And those of you who are undergrads right now, what's your plan of action?
The feeling I get is freshman year is kind of open with unpaid gigs like BB PWM and boutiques being the most common. Sophomore year, unless you have great connections, is looking for good boutiques and MM firms. Junior year seems the most obvious, trying to get that competitive BB IBD, S&T, ER, or whatever field you're interested in.
What do you guys think?
I think you answered your own question.
Very rare to land anything in IB after sophomore year unless you have great connections, even at boutiques. Firms hire SA's for the purpose of hiring some of them full-time the next year--that's not something that distinguishes BB's from boutiques.So it makes a lot more sense for them to hire penultimate-year students.
More power to you if you can land that type of gig after sophomore year. Otherwise, just do anything relevant that keeps your "story" consistent on your resume.
