IBD / CM / S&T path

Hi there !

I've got a few questions concerning my future as I did not follow the classic path at all.

Quickly:

  • French BS (top 10 nobody in IBD) master's degree + a BBA in another French BS before (top10).
  • Managed to do internships (both 6 months in Paris): Portfolio Manager Amundi + DCM Major French Bank
  • Now in London for 8 month as an intern at the Bond Syndicate of a German Bank
  • Graduated in march 2020 (no courses just have to wait)

Questions:

Summers Internships I'm not considering it with my shitty BS and it's too late.

How can I apply to banks ? Analyst programs seem very similar to summer internships with video interviews and a huge process...

Is it possible to apply "normally" and to be invited for interviews ?

I'd like to work in August or September 2020, I would like to work in DCM or Bond Syndicate but I'm considering all opportunities (AM, IBD, HF.......)

What would you advise ? I would love to work in London but I can move (NY, Paris, Dubai, HK, Singapore...)

**Resume: 20 Months experienced guy looking for an analyst position and mainly targeting comps to be honest **

Thanks in advance all !
