Hi college juniors,
I thought it'd be helpful if we all compiled out status in this thread for our HK IBD SA applications, as I think it was practiced last year and the year before.
So let me just start:
CS: 1st round invite
Citi: pending
JPM: pending
Best of luck to all of you!

What process are you going
What process are you going through for Asia IBD? Through the website or campus recruiting?
My Chinese is useless and I
My Chinese is useless and I stated that on my application as well.
Depends on the college, we have a resume drop for most banks but they tell you to apply online in addition to that. Good luck with UBS and GS in HK, I heard the interviews are intense!
cs first round interview
cs first round interview coming up tuesday
GS superday is pretty standard
UBS HK has "assessment center" consisted of:
1) 1 Individual interview
2) Math test
3) Individual presentation
4) Chinese test
5) group project
a couple questions. 1. Does
a couple questions.
1. Does Asia Pacific SA recruiting start earlier than US? If so, is it just IBD or is it the same for S&T?
2. If I apply to HK, am I still allowed to apply for US?
3. Is it too late to apply to HK (like most of the resume screening would have been over)?
Do you go to a target? If
Do you go to a target? If not, you need to look up the timeline on banks' websites. My school has a resume drop for HK positions and the deadlines are different from the website deadlines.
1. Yes, APAC SA recruiting
1. Yes, APAC SA recruiting (S&T/IBD) both start and end earlier than US recruiting. Deadline is either today, or a week from now for basically all the BB firms.
2. Depending on bank, yes you can apply for both. But there's an unspoken understanding you're supposed to decide which you would prefer (cause they're gonna ask you "why Asia?"). If you end up getting an offer say from JPM NYC and JPM HK, someone is not going to be too happy.
3. No, it's not too late. The HK process, unlike the NY yone, is stretched over 1.5 months. In New York, first rounds - superdays happen in like a week.

Quick status update: So far, I know that UBS and CS are already conducting 1st rounds. Has anyone heard from J.P. Morgan or Citi yet?

DId UBS IBD already send out first round invites?
I applied for a position in
I applied for a position in Global Markets with Citi and received a rejection today. Did other people receive a similar email? I'm thinking it might have something to do with the fact that I'm a sophomore. On the application, there was an option to select student status, and the only choices were “penultimate year” or “ultimate year” of study. I selected penultimate year but then to be completely upfront, I noted in “additional information” that I was only in my second year..
Didn't even bother applying to CS because I talked to a recruiter who said that they wouldn't accept sophomores for any positions this year (besides through their minority program, which is only for the US anyway).
BofA-ML: didn't apply BarCap:
BofA-ML: didn't apply
