PE/IB Recruitment Info Request for Dummies/Personal Situational Advice Request
This post is a request for:
1) an introduction to the 'on-cycle' recruitment system, and a general advice request for navigating the PE & IB recruitment sphere
2) advice for my personal yet-to-receive-an-offer scenario
For the past few years it's been nose-to-the-grindstone, and I'll be graduating from a mid-tier school soon. I currently have ~6 months of experience interning at a LMM PE fund, 4 months of experience as a WM (portfolio mgmt) intern at a highly regarded fund, and 4 months of experience in C&IB at a large bank. I currently am studying for CFA level 1 to be taken in ~3+ weeks, and scoring 70% on mocks.
I feel like all this is great, but have been receiving an incredibly low response rate on applications; gpa is 3.8+ and a large amount of leadership experience on-campus (not as relevant but still).
My current plan is to read the applicable Red Book interview question sections daily after taking the CFA lvl 1 for the remaining 2-3 months of finishing my degree, but unless something changes I'll need to apply to 1000+ companies for an offer.
Is there a better way to go about this than applications to every entry-level IB & PE firm on Handshake, Linkedin, Indeed, etc.? Looking for any advice I can get, especially advice that ties in an answer to the first request if applicable.
