Senior recruiting for FT from PE internship

I went through SA recruiting and while I didn't do spectacularly (interviews at BAML/MS/Houlihan/Lazard), I converted 3 to superdays, but didn't end up with an offer.

Screwed up heavily by saying "I'd have to think about it" to the "If we gave you an offer..." question. Re-recruiting for FT now, hoping to get as many critiques as possible

I never really understood the point of "Relevant Coursework", if you already have some experience. It's more than likely all the kids applying for positions took the same exact classes-just seems like a waste of space.

 

I guess the idea was that, at my educational tier I'm competing with kids with actual "finance" majors, and while econ majors get a free pass I have to explain that beyond marketing and organizational behavior I do take finance classes.

 

It's supposed to mean found & contacted... How should I word it? Also I obviously wasn't interviewing customers for 150 targets, it ranged from roughly estimating ebitda to calling to figure out pricing to figuring out competition. Light screening after shoving stuff into the funnel, this was pre-IR.
