I Didn’t Get an IB Internship - What Do I Do Now?
About the event
Not getting the IB internship you wanted can feel like you’ve fallen behind, but it doesn’t mean your path into investment banking is over. There are still ways to build relevant experience, strengthen your candidacy, and position yourself for the next recruiting cycle. This session is for students who missed out on an IB internship and want a clear plan for what to do next. You’ll learn how to make the most of the experience you can get, strengthen your resume, and put yourself in a better position for future IB opportunities. Join live to hear from an IB expert with deep career services experience at UC Berkeley’s elite Master of Financial Engineering program, a leading pipeline for investment banking talent. The speaker will share practical strategies for recovering from a missed internship opportunity, building relevant experience, and approaching your next recruiting cycle strategically. Bring your questions and leave with a clearer roadmap for getting back on track toward an IB offer.
