I wasted 400+ hours of my time on:

— Reading the 400 IB questions

— Writing out scripts for my behavioral answers

— Networking with the wrong people

I was busy but had nothing to show for it.

Instead, I have focused on:

— Mock interviews with a dedicated high finance professional.

— Email outreach targeting analysts (typically the ones who will review your resume first).

— Outreach to more senior professionals so that I could bring a perspective to the interview unique to the place at which I was interviewing.

Remember, it's time spent on the right things that matters.

That is, if you want to land a $100k+ job right after graduation.
