Akash entered his UNC Kenan-Flagler MBA focused on pivoting from data analytics to investment banking. Like many candidates, he went all-in on the traditional recruiting pipeline, only to find himself still searching for an internship midway through the recruiting cycle.
Rather than giving up, he leaned on his prior experience and network, landing a non-traditional internship at Novartis that ultimately led to a full-time role. We spoke with him about what it’s really like to strike out in MBA recruiting, how to think about Plan A and Plan B roles, and why networking, especially during internships, can matter more than the pipeline itself.
