Senior from non-target here. Just spoke to HR at a firm where I had a potential superday - the spots were filled before my interview.
Became a bit depressed now - I was unable to get any full time offer so far. I wanted to transition from IB to consulting but it seems like I might be jobless after graduating in 05-2021.
Any suggestions on how to swallow the reality? Are there still any job openings?
Would my 1.5-yr internships in IB and PE qualify me for any experienced hire?
Thanks.

Largely Marketing or Sales. You won’t get S&O from undergrad, so don’t waste time applying.

There are job openings out there, yes. Keep trying and good luck!

Had been working as a BA/PM role at a financial firm for 3.5 years and decided to leave corporate to join my family’s small business with the mentality I’d take things over. It’s been a little over a year and I’ve come to the realization that it’s not for me. Im looking to transition myself back to IT/Tech, but am feeling apprehensive in getting the attention of recruiters with the industry switch. Any advice from anyone that’s been in a similar situation?
