Is Commercial Bank Middle Market Summer Analyst position out of reach?
Hi all,
After reading some extremely useful and informative threads on WSO, I have decided to pursue a commercial banking summer analyst position for this upcoming summer. However, before I begin to apply, I want to know if this is a realistic goal for someone in my position.
I am set to graduate from a state university in December 2017 with a 3.3 Finance GPA. Unfortunately, I do not have any financial experience. I've worked as a litigation assistant part time for the entirety of my college career and have served in multiple leadership capacities for my fraternity. So I don't have a completely bare resume.
Given my low GPA and lack of relevant experience, would I be able to at least get an interview at a reputable bank? Aside from networking, is there anything I can do to make my resume more appealing for blind applications?
I am curious to hear from anyone that has been in a similar situation.
Any input is appreciated.
