Hi! I am a college freshman and have a huge passion to get into investment banking. I've been applying online everywhere but haven't heard back just because there is so much competition for these kinds of internships.

I know it's a long shot, but I was wondering if anyone on here could connect me to any internships in IB? I live in the DFW area. Would appreciate any help!

Haha, I kind of figured, didn't hurt to try though. Do you have any recommendations of good internship roles I could pursue right now that would put me on the right track to get hired later on?

Good luck kid.

Thank you!

As a freshman that would be difficult unless your at a top school with great grades!
Good luck though don’t give up. Get more experience

Thank you! Do you have any good recommendations of valuable roles I could get experience in that could best set me up for success in IB down the line?

Still too young give it until junior and senior year.

Is this new job DOA? I’ve been in my new role 6 weeks after interviewing extensively and getting 5 offers and thinking back on those offers I turned down. I picked this company bc I liked their product and the manager, but I’m already feeling 1. REALLY silo-ed . Not a collaborative environment (even though I’m perfectly capable of doing my own thing.)Like I have entire days I don’t talk to anyone 2. Can’t seem to get my boss’s attention on my priorities that truly should be huge company issues

Final round! Panel interview w an assignment to present some ideas on how to increase customers for 1 of 5 key audience segments.
I’m most familiar with 1 as it’s the audience I work with at current job. Not enough info/experience with other 2 segments. Remaining segments I know enough but not as confidently.

Will it look like I took the easy way out if I chose my segment? They know it’s my current audience and has been for 8 yrs. Would love to hear your thoughts!

Hi all. I’m finishing up school and looking to start applying for jobs in tech, I’m going for computer science, what range of salary should I expect going into this field?

Is it even possible for us to come closer to a better agreement with them being so low? All other aspects of the job are in line with what I'm looking for, so I really want to make this work.
