How difficult is it for a UK student to get an internship position in a bulge bracket firm in New York, if you have a contact pretty high up the hierarchy?

Already answered earlier in the thread, basically impossible. Although, if your contact can get you an interview then maybe.

Is it too late to start looking for internships? I thought we were meant to start looking for them in early October, but holy ****, everyone here sounds like they already have one.

Thank god! It'll be future me's problem to get one then.

you obviously know more about the chances, since you are the one in the situation and I doubt anyone else in the forum has gone through it


I was only recently introduced to the contact and I haven't even approached him yet. I was asking to find out how much to realistically expect - chill with the hostility mate.

So it's not really a contact ahahaha, I very much doubt you'll get an interview if this is the first time you're speaking to him.

Hahaha, I would say the formatting of the application form annoyed me more than the WE questions
