Default Should I be worried

I am a y2 student and should be doing internships in summer. Applied to several but have no received any offer/rejection. Should I be worried...when should I stop waiting for the replies?

Lurker here. The top 5 under 30yo priority bankers (not private) of each local bank are clearing 1m a year all in easily.

I know an independent insurance agent who just turned 30 who cleared 700 last year.

You just need to not have a conscience. Like in our line of work.

Are you only applying to big firms? By this point in the year.. yeah it's pretty late. But you should still try, people drop out of internships all the time for many reasons.

Apply to ceca law firms and let a ceca come and take your place. Win-win.

Keep applying. Some firms won't get back to you if you didn't make the cut. Give it 2 weeks. take it that its a rejection if you dont hear back in 2 weeks.
