Target school student can't get interviews for SA
Hi Monkeys,
I did my undergrad at a "super non-target" and managed to get into one of the "target European Masters". I started applying late (early October) for London SA but got rejections or ghosted before I even got an interview. I did 2 internships in Asia that are totally unrelated, I speak another European language fluently, and I am an international student (if that changes anything). However, it looks like I can't even get past screening for a lot of firms and am starting to run out of firms to apply for. I've been applying for internships in IB, Corporate Banking, and even started to apply for non-banking roles as I am starting to run out of SA to apply for. I actually got a response for non-banking roles and made it to the final steps but never heard back from my applications for banking SA.
I would like to know whether that is due to the current market conditions or if there is anything I could do to improve my chances? Also would like to know what kind of roles would you consider applying for if you can't break in IB?
