So I come from a non-target liberal arts, but have a relatively strong GPA (above 3.5) and secured an internship this summer at a boutique, of only about 20 people but who engage in large deals and a handful of multibillion dollar deals. They do not hire out of undergrad and I knew that going in, but thought that the exposure to large deals and the more hands on position I would have given the size of the firm might make it a good internship. Unfortunately despite insane networking efforts I couldn't get any interviews anywhere. Having had constant contact with the head of IB recruiting for the US at a handful of banks and multiple partners and MDs at each of the other places I applied, i was pretty bummed to find I still can't get a foot in the door. Despite this, I have maintained al of these contacts keeping in touch on a weekly or biweekly basis in the event that a position does open up. So my question is now that all positions are filled, how often is it that an analyst quits from their team? Just so I can understand if my continued efforts might be fruitful in the end. Thanks again for any and all responses.
