Yes, you seem to be on track. Make sure to network with alums!
“Which banks”. Lol. Just apply to all like everyone else.
By that I mean what is the best I should reasonably expect (Goldman or JP Morgan being the top)
Network and you can interview with any of them there is no bank you can't 'interview' with nor 'get'.
The reality is that finance jobs aren’t transitive. You might get an interview from JPM but the following week receive a rejection from HSBC. But sure, with a good application you should theoretically be able to get interviews wherever. Networking is key tho.
you should be in good shape. definitely start reaching out to alumns now - I'm a junior now and I didn't start "networking" until a couple months before applications were due late this past summer/ early fall. Ended up getting an SA offer at a BB that I'm happy with but definitely would have had a way easier time if I started making connections earlier. Other thing I'd say is definitely grind hard in school for the rest of the year. I know people on this forum tend to underemphasize GPA, but the reality is its the first thing people are going to look at on your resume. With a 3.7 you're in a good spot, but if you push it as close to a 3.8 as possible you'll really stand out, whereas if it drops down into 3.6 range you'll start to fit in with a large pack of people with similar grades. put in work man! a million people want your spot - you're ahead of the pack but don't let your foot of the gas!
good school, good gpa, interesting double major. apply like everyone else and see what happens?
