Which 2017 Summer Analyst Internships are less competitive?
I'm a Junior at a target undergraduate feeder school with a garbage GPA majoring in Finance and Government seeking a summer internship in IBD, ER, AM, or Consulting. I come from an extremely fortunate family and am not concerned with salary competitiveness either this summer or post-graduation. Since my past internship was political in nature, I'm mainly just seeking financial industry experience and resume building. I'm not desperate for securing a post-grad offer or anything
My University has heavy OCI recruitment from all the Bulge Bracket banks, but usually the process is highly competitive and has GPA requirements. I've so far received a notification of being second rounded for a summer M&A internship. I haven't heard anything back from the other half dozen or so Summer Analyst positions that I applied for back in December.
Are any of you familiar with the time frames regarding recruiting for 2017 Summer? Also do any of you have recommendations from experience about what would be a worthwhile non-IB avenue to pursue for my purposes. I'm open to relocation and interested in some of the less desirable locations such as Houston, etc. I happen to be conservative, hence my intrigue.
First you may want to decide what industry within finance you want to be since you named all of them (essentially) I say this because they each haven't different timelines and recruitment schedules...
If you're considering non-IBD, then look for ER and AM. MBB consulting is just as difficult as BB/EB IBD.
ER and AM are a tad bit easier (especially if you're looking at non-NYC). non-MBB options are worth exploring too, Accenture recruits in the spring for instance.
Easiest Place to Get an Internship or FT Offer (Originally Posted: 02/12/2014)
Hi all, It may sound funny, but I want to know in what country and city is the easiest to get an internship or FT offer ? Kind regards,
Aren't you the guy who dreams of going to Harvard? I don't think they'd like an easy offer to get.
