I went to a top target in the US. My employer from my junior year internship (in a niche product) didn't give anyone return offers, and FT recruiting was weak this year + didn't go so hot for me. I'm Canadian, which is hardly international but I would need to get sponsored and for smaller firms this was more of an issue.
I applied for Post-Completion OPT and made it to some final rounds for off-cycle openings in asset-based finance (to keep it non-specific), and I didn't really get negative feedback (my interview skills have greatly improved over the course of the year, a bit too late hah), just that they took pre-2013 grads with more experience. With the 90-day unemployment gap closing soon, I came back to Canada a few days ago. So close, very disheartening etc.
