Gonna be doing a few spring weeks in LDN. Seen some absolute stunners attending as well. Solid 10/10s. I'm tryna get a summer conversion, but I'm also tryna convert these baddies to my bedroom.
Any advice on how to approach it would be appreciated. Preferably from someone with XP in this field. Thanks.

Bro's a tier 1 hater. You're one of the guys with no XP. It's okay if its a tough game for you but some of us tryna play...
Stop talking ghetto. It does you no favors.
Don't hate the player, hate the game
Personally, you gotta drop that m&a rizz. An example would be, 'Are you a strategic acquisition? Because every time I see you, I feel like merging'
Wow OMG, this is the secret rizz I have been looking for. I will report back with the results - thank you good sir!!!
Let me know how it goes, keep the baddies and m&a deal flow going my soldier
Another one you could use is, you seem like a teaser for a prospective acquisition, I have a big LOI, so let me into your VDR to assess our potential synergies.
Let's do some horizontal integration
Wearing this shirt on the spring week should give them the hint

Guys spitting facts
Thank you alpha male!

Solid question OP, ultimately it comes down to how bad you want each type of conversion.
I’ve personally found that the low tier semi-targets/non-targets (Manchester/Loughborough/Leeds) tend to be the easiest to impress whilst also being good looking. Diversity programme non-targets (Sheffield/Cardiff) tend to be the strongest bet, but obviously rare to come across.
Would avoid the pretentious semi-target type (Durham/Bristol/Exeter) - tend to be very focused on conversion (to a summer) as they’re trying to fill that chip on their shoulder from their oxbridge rejection (with a summer, not something else) - if you’re Oxbridge you’ll have an easier time converting this type due to halo effect but still an uphill battle. Have also found Warwick girls to fall into this category.
Targets (Oxbridge/LSE/UCL) are a bit of a wild card. Can range from extreme hardo type (LSE) to the fun out-going kind (UCL). A lot of internationals from these schools too, although they’re also very focused on conversion (visa reasons). Good looking Oxbridge girls are the top of the pyramid in terms of prestige, they’re likely to be unimpressed by your CV due to mass exposure to smart AND handsome guys (rugby captains/rowers/badminton players) - landing a conversion here is arguably more impressive than a top-tier spring conversion (BX/PJT RSSG/Barclays).
Hope this helped, good luck OP!
Would also note that people at top springs (MS/BX/DB UpReach/Jane Street CorpDev) will be locked in for converting the spring and therefore difficult to land. I would echo the above poster and say go for the non-targets (or the diversity hires if that's what you're into lol)

This is gold dust - I have found the holy grail of corporate game!!!
Congrats on badminton!
OP asking the questions I wished I asked during my spring weeks
Personally, the best risk-weighted method is through a swap trade. Standard rules apply, the easiest baddies to convert are 1.5-2 degrees of separation from your social circle. [I.e. Girl from another division (ideally mid/back office if you're front) or girl from another bank also having spring weeks]
Step 1: Get 2 man step. Your bro should also be 1.5-2 degrees of separation (in corporate sense)
Step 2: Invite other interns from your division out for a nights out, make sure baddies come along. Get your friend to do the same and meet up.
Step 3: Intermingle with the other interns. If all goes well intermingle again in a private setting
Or just be a bigger man than I am - shoot your shot direct.
Great question. It’s always a 2-man step in this game. Like someone else mentioned in the thread - you want a like minded individual to bounce off of to shine your personality.
Invite them to ‘post-work drinks’ whenever your spring week ends, and see where the night takes you. You are still 18/19 @ completing your first year at university, don’t think it should be that difficult.
Make sure you wear a nice suit. Good luck.
What is a summer conversion? Genuinely curious #American
