What Should I do to Break into IB?
I am a rising senior at a semi-target, but my school has terrible IB recruiting despite being top 25 in US news (only 2-3 mm/boutiques for OCR FT recruiting). I because interested in IB in fall of junior year and did not even try SA recruiting. I was hoping to break into IB via FT recruiting this fall/summer. With COVID-19, I am feeling screwed. I have a 3.9+ gpa, a boutique IB internship, a wealth management internship, and an investment internship at a pension fund. I am also president of two clubs. For this summer, I am interning at a search fund and valuation at a big 4. I am currently networking but bankers are telling me there will likely be no FT spots. One even suggested I aim for a top MBA in 4-5 years. I have the big 4 valuation job as backup, but I feel like I have the resume for an IB spot. My end goal is to work at a L/S hedge fund and starting a big 4 valuation would make the journey there much longer and harder. Any advise on what I should do? Should I consider applying for top MSF programs?
