Job market is cooked. Cannot find new role as an ex-MBB and domestic Ivy League grad.
Been job hunting for over 6 months since I got laid off from MBB after 2 years with the firm as an associate. Thought my Ivy League background + US citizenship + MBB experience would land me a somewhat decent role quickly even after getting laid off.
Rejected or ghosted from every role I’ve applied for, from marketing roles to S&O to product to FP&A, and no longer have a pipeline atm. Pretty much gave up any hope for applying to an MBA program and am just focused on securing anything as I’m getting quite desperate and running out of savings/unemployment benefits.
Please do not underestimate how bad this job market is. Lower your standards and do not be picky, especially if you are an international. It’s fucking awful.
