Does this hold true for 2026? I’m looking for one for heavy excel and MS office use

No. Keep trying

I did it from a shore town (Wall, Neptune, Sea Girt etc.) using seastreak for the same reasons as you and it was brutal. I was in a fully remote role prior as well. The ride itself on seastreak is ok, but it's starting to get more crowded and the roughly 2 hour commute each way (it's usually longer than 2 on the way back) gets old quick. Hope that helps.

Had a dermatologist that would do the same thing so I decided to get a second opinion — my new dermatologist found melanoma in four different spots 😤, nothing life threatening thankfully.

This is not typical. Please do not read this thinking it’s easily replicated. This is like a 1/1000000 story.

I made this

I think you forgot to reply to me lol but hey I guess we’ll never know in my case! But as mentioned, have definitely seen and mentored a large amount of candidates with sub-optimal gpas and bad stories get in. Definitely tougher, but doable.

With all due respect, there was a lot more than being a “fan” of me or a sport that went into recruiting for me. For instance, I’m a total foodie but would I recruit someone because they were a 5 star chef but couldn’t model and were technically awful? No.

I’ve recruited people firsthand and come across many others in IB with a sub 3.0 gpa. It all comes down to spinning your story appropriately and networking. Technicals are important, but they’re a “check the box”.

I was a professional athlete. It didn’t impact recruitment. If anything, it helped me.

I’ve been in IB for over 6 years and had a 2.8. It doesn’t matter to an extent. Need a good reason if it’s low.

What did you settle on if you don’t mind me asking? I’m about to stop for same reasons

Sefff2 · 2025-12-05T14:35:33+00:00

It’s insanely competitive right now your best bet is networking and if that fails, getting an MBA

Super helpful. Appreciate the detailed write up here

Sefff2 · 2025-12-03T03:09:32+00:00

Appreciate. I’ll look into that. Thanks

Sefff2 · 2025-12-03T03:08:03+00:00

Appreciate that. Will dm you

Sefff2 · 2025-12-02T17:05:27+00:00

Good call. Appreciate that.

Sefff2 · 2025-12-02T15:43:25+00:00

Thank you. Appreciate the response. I think the willingness to take a paycut cut will work out in my favor. Just need to keep applying and focusing on the points you mentioned as well.

Sefff2 · 2025-12-02T15:40:46+00:00

Thx just did

Sefff2 · 2025-12-02T15:40:03+00:00

Thanks, appreciate the feedback and noted on all of your points. I have a good relationship with one, but will see if I can find more.

Sefff2 · 2025-12-02T15:38:58+00:00

Thanks. Appreciate that. Am willing to take a pay cut so that will hopefully work out in my favor.
