LINCOLN’S INN FIELDS — As internship offers roll in, and many keen students anxiously await responses, Christmas has come early for one member of the LSE community. Receiving offers from Deutsche Bank, JP Morgan, and the most prized Goldman Sachs, the Hare Krishna man is set to have a busy summer.

Managing to catch him during a lull in the lunchtime rush, the Raccoon asked him a few questions about his corporate success.

“It’s all about building personal relationships,” said the man when asked about his recipe for success, boasting his 500+ LinkedIn connections. “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.”

When prodded about how he went from feeding LSE to landing internships, he responded “This stand taught me everything I know about B2B sales. My interviewers were particularly impressed by my revolutionary food pricing models.”

Many of the Hare Krishna man’s regulars are happy for him. “He absolutely deserves this,” says a professor waiting in line. “He’s more dedicated than any of the students. He is in school every day – according to our database, he has the best attendance in the history of LSE.”

Wrapping up our interview, we asked whether he had any tips for potential applicants. “Rejection is redirection. BIG and AISEC couldn’t see my potential, and that’s their fault.” Responding to our request for comment, a BIG spokesperson stated, “He was rejected because charity is not in line with our values.”
