Recent BSBA Graduate - Introduction
Hello,
My name is Damian and I am a recent graduate with a bs in business administration focused in finance. I have been looking for a position in corporate finance for a few months and have had no luck. Could really use some advice on where to start.
Thanks

Do you have an industry you are specifically interested in?
I'm interested in banking and private equity, but at this point, Id take anything that I would be able to use as leverage in the industry later.
So more interested in Banking that Corp Finance? I am trying to figure out what direction to help point you in
corp finance
It will be easiest to cruise LinkedIn, which can be challenging at times. You can set a job search to feed you roles that have "FP&A" or "Analyst" in the title. Working for a public company can have challenges so I would encourage a privately held corporation.
Also having a willingness to relocate will be helpful. I am not sure if you are focused on any location or not, but having a willingness to relocate will get you in the door more easily than not being willing to relocate.
