Investment Banking Recruiting Secrets of the Top 1%

Shownotes Transcript

Our student Aakash came to us as a sophomore at UPenn who was feeling behind on the investment banking recruiting process.

At the time, his friends had already lined up freshmen internships, whereas he had only recently grown an interest in banking after attending an info session.

After joining WSMM, he landed his first relevant internship within a week, learned how to take advantage of info sessions for networking, and began landing interviews shortly thereafter.

Hear how Aakash went from being behind in the recruiting process to becoming one of the top candidates at his highly competitive target-school.
