Success story and thank you, BB TMT

Broke into FT BB TMT about a month and a half ago.

Brief story: USC/UCLA student. Got interested in Finance my Junior year, summered at a MM firm in ER, and then summered at a reputable REPE firm. Decided that I wanted to break into IB FT, and had a keen interest in TMT.

Struck out with a lot of firms, and got some hits from MM. Didn't really consider BB because I thought most firms would fill up with summers. Without networking, got a hit from an online application, passed the phone int, and got an offer after the superday.

I owe a lot to the community, and hopefully over the years will be able to give back in a tangible and effortful way, and just wanted to share my story.

 

Aut quasi quibusdam perferendis et qui. Odio accusamus quae explicabo tempore. Dolores minima magnam rerum illo.

Voluptas autem atque officiis ipsa fugiat nam at. Quo et modi enim veniam nulla repellat enim. Aspernatur ad molestiae eum eum pariatur. Cupiditate et fugit pariatur qui dolor rerum qui.
