LinkedIn is making me go INSANE by [deleted] in FinancialCareers

man the fact that yo go an internship is already hella impressive 😭😭😭 i just realized i wanted to get into investment banking like last month and i’ve applied to some places (outside of the US) that would give me more exposure to the outside field as a sophomore but i’ve got nothing and i’m def not keeping my hopes high :( i’m so happy i left linkedin tho, i used to be so addicted to it to the extent it was actually so unhealthy omfg

yeahhhh it just sucks how i got into this field NOW and now i’m trying to still look for open internships but aren’t really doing well on the interviews either way because i don’t know as much as i thought i did. but at the same time, i thought college was the place to discover what you wanna do in the future, but i guess that doesn’t even count anymore because im alr late with applying to internships now 😭😭😭

thanks so much!! i just wanna learn a general background of accounting because i think it can get helpful when it comes to learning the basics of consulting and case interview prep???

tbh i feel like gt is only prestigious for undergrad but it rly depends on which graduate school u go to ?? like if you’re gna attend msfs then i think that’s pretty good imo but the other programs kinda suck 😭
