I really can’t secure an Internship for this summer and I had someone from EY say that I was overqualified but I don’t think that’s true. To be honest, I am a bit late to the internship finding game just because I recently decided I wanted to go into consulting (was premed). Despite that I have a lot of background regarding leadership roles in entrepreneurship/business activities at my school. I’m starting to get discouraged and scared. Any tips or advice on this? Thank you!
