What should I do :(
I didn't get any acceptance for the winter internship(JAN-FEB), plus I want to pursue career in corporate preferably M&A or maybe something else. I'm very confused about what topics to explore what to do about all this I don't understand how to connect with people in this industry and I feel so unmotivated, everyone around me is bagging internships at either firms or under reputed AOR thru connections. Can Someone guide me a little, I feel very lost.
