Hi,
I recently graduated from a top public university, I had a high GPA (3.83), D1 basketball player, excellent internships in managment consulting and banking as well as school involvement. However, I have no connections to consulting, I have tried using LinkedIn to network, but without having a luke warm connection I can't get any ground in creating a relationship with employees of the company for referrals (also applying cold hasn't worked). As I dont feel like I deserve a job, I have worked extremely hard to earn an at least a phone interview and was wondering if anyone had any tips to get recognized from a top teir consulting firm?
