Your Help Can Make a Difference

Hey WSO Community,

I’m reaching out because I genuinely need your guidance. As an international student from a non-target school, I am passionately pursuing a career in financial services. I’ve been putting in countless hours networking, applying, and preparing, but despite my best efforts, I’m finding it incredibly challenging to secure an internship for this summer.

I do have experience working in private equity sales, but it was an unpaid role, which means I am still unable to support myself financially. This makes it even more crucial for me to find a paid internship opportunity, and your help would genuinely mean the world to me.

I know the WSO community is full of incredible professionals who have navigated similar paths, and I would be immensely grateful for any help, advice, or insights you can provide. Whether it’s pointing me toward an opportunity, sharing your story, or even giving some words of encouragement, it would mean the world to me.

If you or someone you know can help in any way, please drop a comment or share your contact info – I will make sure to reach out personally. Your support could truly make a difference in my career journey, and I can’t thank you enough for taking the time to read this.
