You’ve only networked with 9 people?
Yes only 9 phone calls. Have tried to reach out to more.
Find 1 or 2 firms that r still open. Network heavily u might still be in it
Do you think Barclays and Goldman are still open for the most part.
Not Goldman. Maybe Barclays depending on if ur school has a strong alumni base there
For higher BB/EBs it’s pretty hard. For context I talked to 180 people to get 1 offer. I recommend focusing on LMM firms in your area of interest/location based or a place you can get exposure
9 calls is nowhere near enough, extracurriculars are not going to make up for that. Focus on banks with active openings (look on here to see who's still recruiting) and MM / regional boutiques - network there.
