🧠 How to Secure 2026 Spring Weeks, Internships & Grad-Schemes

All you have to do is start preparing now — Before application season opens...

Hey 👋!

Let’s get straight to it:

The students who land Spring Weeks, Internships, and Grad-Schemes in finance?
They don’t wait until applications open.
They start now — WAY before anyone else even thinks about applying.

Here’s the brutal truth:
Once roles go live in July/August/September, the clock’s already ticking.
And by then, if your CV, cover letter, and networking game aren’t already sharp, you're just playing catch-up.

So if you're aiming for offers in 2026, here’s exactly what you need to do between now and then:

🔑 Step 1: Get Clear on the Process

Do you know when the earliest applications open?
Which firms recruit on a rolling basis?
What order to tackle CVs, cover letters, psychometrics, and interviews in?

This is the stuff that trips up even the smartest candidates — not because they aren’t capable, but because they didn’t plan properly.

🎯 Step 2: Tailor Your Story

Every successful applicant has a narrative that makes sense.
You don’t need a perfect background. You just need a coherent one:

  • Why finance?

  • Why [IB / AM / S&T / Consulting]?

  • What was the pivotal moment that opened your eyes?

  • Why you?

📈 Step 3: Build a Weekly Momentum System

If you treat this like a crammed school project, you'll burn out.
Treat it like a fitness plan instead — small consistent steps:

  • 1 firm researched per week

  • 1 coffee chat per week

  • 1 CV tweak or interview practice per week

That’s what creates compounding results.

Inside Finance Fast Track, we’ve built this exact system for you — from 0 to offer.

It includes:
✅ Minimum of 4 LIVE training calls with me every week (16 per month!)
✅ 30-day challenges to keep you accountable (plus quizzes)
✅ CV & cover letter reviews
✅ Interview prep and mock sessions
✅ And a private community of students just like you doing the work, daily.

Here’s what I’ll leave you with:

The students who succeed in this process?
They're not better. They’re just better prepared.

And you don’t have to do it alone.
