Wall Street Oasis

How do you break into Wall Street from a non-target school with no traditional recruiting path?

In this mentor podcast, Brandon shares how he went from a super non-target background and hundreds of applications to Goldman Sachs, before eventually moving into front-office fixed income trading.

He breaks down the recruiting mistakes that cost him interviews, what finally helped him convert offers, why networking matters more than most students think, and what he would do differently if he were starting again.
