我今年如何从10次拒绝转变为一个梦想实习。

财务采访:

高盛第一轮。不。
Altamont Capital第一轮。不。
Bracebridge Capital第一轮。不
Bridgewater Associates第一轮。不。

Consulting Interviews:

Cornerstone Research 1st round No.
Analysis Group 1st round. No.
西蒙·库切尔(Simon-Kucher)第一轮。不。

最后一轮采访:

Centerview决赛。不。
贝莱德决赛。不。
JP Morgan Final round. No.
另一个凸起支架银行 - 是的!上面遭到拒绝之后,我曾经接受过的最后一次采访。

从拒绝中学习:

我不会说我确实进入了(保持匿名),但我确实进入了BB今年。来自常春藤的金融背景,来自财务背景,我开始沮丧,因为我参加了很多采访。有很多次我觉得自己的努力是徒劳的。他们不是!一旦被拒绝,请继续进行下一个。从中学习。你做错了什么?这是一个使您迷惑的技术问题吗?是合适的问题吗?行为问题?

总是有改进的空间:

练习练习。与您的室友,朋友和职业中心。无论是通过电话,Skype还是亲自进行。总是有改进的余地。在采访中微笑。我发现当您这样做时,您的外观很有风度。不要害怕谈论您是什么使您独一无二(我过去赢得了艺术比赛,这使许多访调员感到惊讶)。至于咨询,不要像我这样的愚蠢 - 练习如何与某人回答案例研究问题。至于金融,请确保研究技术(WSO是上帝送到这里!)。总是有同样的问题(DCF,估值等)。使用Investment Banking Interview Prep Course...I believe it was the single biggest reason why I ended up with an offer.

In summary, this was the most grueling thing I did in college. I'm glad I did it because it was a great learning experience. Moral of the story: DON'T GIVE UP, NO MATTER HOW IMPOSSIBLE IT LOOKS. If this didn't convince you, then I don't know what would.

The background story is here:I'm so pathetic--I can't get past 1st round Interviews

I think the struggle comes in getting the interviews in the first place. I can't imagine how impossible it might've seemed to get into banking coming from an ivy with a highGPAand numerous interviews... Nonetheless, congrats.

Edit: Don't know why so many of you are getting rustled over this comment..

恭喜!但是,值得称赞的努力,正如某人提到的那样,这是一连串的拒绝,在清算阶段,将精神从大多数有抱负的银行家身上淘汰。觉得一个人甚至不值得进行第一轮采访,因为一个人参加非目标会让您感到非常有价值。当您接受采访时,您可以证明您是一个值得候选的人。这么说,我很高兴您从错误中学到了学到的东西,最终得到了要约。

我总是可以与这样的故事联系起来。出色的工作!

persistence is key everyone!

恭喜OP。我今年有一个类似的故事,得到了多次实习拒绝,但最终一切都解决了,因为我获得了梦想的实习。只需要继续磨削即可。

May 28, 2015 - 12:58pm

老实说,一旦进入最后一轮,这主要是合适的。我总是相信,如果您回答了好问题,尽力做到了,您仍然没有得到报价,无论如何您都不适合,而且您并没有真正做错任何事情。如果由于个人差异而没有得到报价,您将不会感到失败。
实习并不容易。即使具有出色的背景,也很难。不管A类型的人构成了轻松着陆internships,都是错误的。不要对此感到沮丧。

FYI- once you have a great internship, you'll be beating full time interviews off with a stick. I had to turn down so many companies. So, it gets much better. (It also feels nice to tell the company 'no' for once.)

Lol I remember when you posted that about how pathetic you were. I remember thinking that with that attitude of course you're not going to get any offers. You must have changed that attitude or really made your interviewers pity you. Either way it worked.

另外,您是一个关于正确数量的目光接触的人吗?感觉到您缺乏成功,但也许不是。

Coming from a finance background with a highGPAat an IVY

我喜欢您如何利用这一点,即使您是目标申请人,这就像一个标准期望,尤其是考虑到其中一些学校的年级通货膨胀。这并不像您正在与密西西比州的孩子们作斗争,以争取GSIBD.

I know exactly what you went through! Truly motivational.

P.S. you can check out my story as well, you inspired me to finally post it onWSO.

恭喜!!

This is so inspiring. I totally dinged the interview I had today at aBB.
I always find interviewing with Directors Is very hard. A lot of Directors have 0% patience and seem to forget that they were once rookies.

如果来自常春藤的人几乎无法进入IB,那么来自非目标的学生将如何做到这一点?
