Post Recruitment Depression
嘿大家,
I don't mean to create a pity post, but I guess I wanted to get insight on how I could cope with how my recruitment process played out. And, in all honesty, it actually went pretty well for me, but I still feel a sense of sadness because of how I lost the "big fish" I guess. Here's what happened:
我一直在招募IBfor a bit and was invited in to aMorgan Stanleysuperday. This was honestly the only bigIBopportunity I was able to get, I couldn't blow it. I worked really hard, tirelessly through the days leading up to thesuperday要使自己进入尖端最高形状。而且,当一天到来时,我把它压碎了。我做了三轮比赛,感觉很棒。半小时后,我接到一个未知号码的电话,并被告知我还与正在招募的小组的MDS进行了另外两次采访。我很傻,从来没有听说过以前的超级日子。我很紧张,但仍然准备全力以赴。首次采访出现了,我和我说话的那个人几乎听不到他。他下班开车回家,并不是真正专注于正在发生的事情/是否稳定的沟通。那次采访持续了20分钟。拉屎。 Then the second call rolls around, this guy and I we hit it off alright. I gave my take on the industry he operates in, and though he corrected some of the ideas I had, we still had good bonding moments. Of course, my initial superday interviews were better, but it wasn't the worst thing in the world. So days go by, and I hear no response. Eventually, two weeks down the road I get the generic rejection email from MS and my stomach dropped, it was the end of the line for me to reach the proverbial greatness that I sought after.
As recruitment unfolded, I eventually got a quant role at a pretty reputable firm. But once again,IBat MS was something I held on another level completely, which I admit could be due to the fascination of my peers about such a role. But I was so close, I could taste it. And to be dinged was disheartening, especially when I couldn't really talk with the first MD. I should be happy, I have a really good role in my hands, but my dream role was literally on the top of my fingertips. I've fallen into a rabbit hole of self-blame, and I can't help myself from thinking if I just tweaked myself a teeny tiny bit I would be where I want to be. That junior year internship, at least from the school I'm from, essentially lays the foundation for career trajectory for the coming years, and I think that's where a lot of sadness lies. Keep in mind the MS Superday was literally months ago, yet today I still felt this nagging in the back of my mind that I should have gotten that offer.
So, I would love to hear from you all on your thoughts on my thoughts I guess haha. Given your experiences, how should I go about thinking about what had transpired?

我已经说过几次了,不要陷入名字(不,我不是苦lmm banker, been atEB和BB)。您做了可以做的事情,有时卡片不会对您有利,这会发生。放下小组思考一秒钟,您会意识到情况还可以,也许更好。
Chances are, where you're at now will be a great opportunity and potentially put you on a path that's even better. This career works in strange ways. Go into it 100% and it'll all work out.
True, and from what I've heard the pay for英尺at the place I'll be at is pretty comparable to street, so in that area too it's still looking promising. Just once again, that MS intangible name value is something you don't come across too often, you know.
