No return offer after your summer internship? Been there. In ’07, I faced the financial crisis with no return offer and 20+ rejections. But I still ended up breaking into IB. Join our live Q&A tomorrow, 4:30pm Pacific / 7:30pm Eastern. I’ll share my insights on overcoming the odds in IB recruiting. Tune in on IG, YouTube, or LinkedIn. See you there! -Sam Wall Street Mastermind #investmentbanking #wallstreetmastermind #wallstreet #recruiting #careeradvice

Wall Street Mastermind is offering a money back guarantee for the first time ever. The promise is simple: if you hire us to help you break into investment banking, and you don't get an offer, then we will refund your money. The only requirement: you have to actually do the work that we ask you to do. That's it. Essentially, this removes the risk of you working with us and not getting your money's worth. You either get a super high-paying job right out of school, or you don't pay. As a company, we make all major decisions based on data. Here's what we know: - We've consistently maintained a ~90% success rate, even as the number of students we've worked with has increased year over year. Class of 2020 was 92%, Class of 2021 was 89%, and Class of 2022 (in progress) is currently at 96% - Of the students who got offers, 11% go straight to the buyside (PE/HF/VC), 44% go to elite boutiques or bulge bracket banks, 34% go to middle market banks, and 11% end up at regional boutiques (primarily because they started recruiting after the bigger banks were done already) - Compare this to the acceptance rate at the top banks: Goldman (1.8% for summer 2019), JPMorgan (0.8% for summer 2021), Jefferies (3.5% for summer 2020). Our students outperform the industry average by a mile Skeptics might say that this is because we only work with the best candidates; the data says otherwise: - 45% (less than half) of our successful students come from target schools. 20% from semi-targets, and 35% from non-targets - 41% of our successful students joined our program with less than a 3.7 GPA, which is typically the minimum you'd like to see to be competitive. 21% started with lower than a 3.5, and 7% started with lower than a 3.3. The lowest GPA we've ever helped break into IB was 2.86 (we don't recommend this, she's an outlier) In fact, we've helped all sorts of students who thought that they had no chance at breaking in. You can check out all the different types here: https://lnkd.in/gMFepK3t The bottom line is this - if you need help with investment banking recruiting, you should at least have a chat with us to see if we can help you. If we can, we'll give you our money back guarantee and take on all the risk. If you can't, we will tell you that we can't and give you genuine advice on what you should do instead, because the last thing we want to do is work for free, lol. No other recruiting prep company is offering this kind of guarantee right now, probably because they can't. If you want more details, comment "GUARANTEED OFFER" down below and we'll send you more info. P.S. For the rest of this month (November 2021), we're doing a Black Friday sale where you get close to 20% off. Act fast :) #investmentbanking #wallstreet #wallstreetmastermind

Read this before you consider using an MBA to break into investment banking.

Even MBAs from top business school programs are having a hard time finding jobs this year. “An M.B.A. can cost more than $200,000 at a top school but typically pays off as a launchpad for a new, more lucrative career or the corporate leadership fast track… At Harvard Business School, 20% of job-seeking 2023 M.B.A. graduates didn’t have one three months after graduation, up from 8% in 2021. At Stanford’s Graduate School of Business, 18% didn’t, compared with 9% in 2021. About 13% of those at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Sloan School of Management didn’t have a job within three months, up from about 5% in 2021.” According to Mergers and Inquisitions, “about 30-40% of candidates in the top MBA programs who apply for investment banking roles will win at least one IB summer internship offer, and 10-15% of candidates will win an offer at their top choice.” That’s in a normal market - and even then that means it doesn’t work out for 60-70% of the aspiring bankers. And that’s at the top MBA programs too. This is why I typically don’t recommend going the MBA route to break into investment banking unless you’ve exhausted all of your other options for breaking in… because it can be costly if it doesn’t work out. What are these other options though? See my video in the comments section below. https://lnkd.in/gUYpMXEz
