Hi!
I'm a European student and I'm supposed to do a 6-month internship either in London or NY and more precisely I'm looking for a position within a M&A or Leveraged Finance team. For academic reasons, it would be much easier for me to start it in March rather then January.
So, my question is: Are IB recruiting people for off-cycle internships starting in March?
Thanx for your help!





GS offers one week
GS offers one week internships specifically for european students and I think Deutsche has an internship scheduled around the european undergrad schedule. The only issue I see is that it is impossible to prove yourself to the right people within a week. Try going for an IB apprenticeship in Frankfurt or London. They last about a year
Well, I'm in my penultimate
Well, I'm in my penultimate year and I already have experiences in Finance. I'm really looking for an internship in M&A.
So, that there are no programmes in IB scheduled from March in NYC or London, except spring programmes but there are too short?
Thanx!
No one?
No one?
You can get off-cycle
You can get off-cycle internships with the big banks but they tend to be in other cities, e.g. Frankfurt. The problem with that is that you need to know the local language. Have you tried cold calling some of the smaller boutiques? They might take you on for six months.
Also, the Spring weeks or the one week internships in March are exclusively for first year students (or second year of a four year program).
