Making it to brand name MM super days and not getting offers, but can’t say that I’m upset about not getting them. 26 with all buy-side experience out of undergrad trying to figure out the next move. Any suggestions?

What’s been the main hurdle at your super days?

My guess is more on the typical personality questions with senior staff. Ironing out kinks with interview coaching. My concern is that even if they would have come back with an offer, I would hesitate to accept making me believe banking is not the right move for me.

Would someone would be interested on giving guidance on a platform to users regarding IT field problems like how to deal with hectic hours, career growth, job switch, office politics etc.

The guide will be added in the platform and will give time slots after the job when the guide is available and only for that time slot everyday appointments will come for guiding sessions.

A session would last 40 mins and the guide will be given 250Rs. Per video call session and 150Rs per chat session
