MBA Investment Banking: What to Do Before School Starts

The MBA candidates who succeed in investment banking recruiting usually do not start from zero once school begins. This session breaks down what to do before MBA recruiting ramps up so you can show up prepared. We’ll cover the summer priorities that matter most: technical prep, your “why banking” story, resume positioning, bank research, networking readiness, and how to avoid wasting time on the wrong things. This is designed for incoming MBA students and early MBA candidates who want to build momentum before the formal recruiting process begins.
