somewhat distressed.

Said the IB/PE/asset management "clubs" are apparently super cutthroat and the "recruitment process" is ongoing but painful. DH said he'd just email around for internship opportunities from our/his network bc the official intern programs aren't even for after freshman year. does this sound right?

anyone btdt? what types of internships did your kid get following freshman year and how early did they line it up?

kid interested in finance, investment management, resource/energy advisory (trading or commodities) and/or consulting[/quote]

Poor kid. Yes, some schools are well known for cutthroat clubs. Georgetown, Wharton, Columbia and Cornell are in this category. Too much pressure! I’m pp who posted about my son interning w JPMorgan and then getting an offer. He just graduated (class of ‘24) and after freshman year he just worked the same summer job he had in high school - it showed that he was wanted back, plus I think plenty of employers want to know the kids have actually had to clock in and WORK even menial jobs vs having unpaid internships from family connections.
