Where to go from here - Zero offers

So, its November, and most FT recruiting is over for IB. I had zero offers and I'm going to ultimately have to lower my aspirations but I'm afraid I put so much focus into IB FT that even that will be closed for me. Basically, what I'm asking is, are positions at boutiques, F500 companies, etc. still available? Really hope I didn't completely miss the boat here.

Thanks guys

Did you not interview with all the other companies through OCR? Not too late yet, some firms will still recruit in the spring semester for FT, you should keep networking with everyone-especially alumni.
