I'm looking to start a 1-yr masters program this summer, and I'm thinking of starting to reach out to alums in IBD. I'm an international student, so I'll need H1B sponsorship. I understand that the banks that received TARP money have major hurdles towards hiring foreign students, but if the money is paid back, do the restrictions still apply?
I'd be interested to know which banks are still hiring H1B workers.





All BBs should not have
All BBs should not have problem hiring intl' students.
I am an international master student, I interviewed with all BBs in US, I guess they would not be interested in me if they cannot sponsor H1B.
Now that they paid back TARP
Now that they paid back TARP this should no longer be an issue

What about Citi?
What about Citi?
I don't know about now, but
I don't know about now, but back in 2008, the only banks that would hire foreign students were Citi and Barclays
Before TARP, banks were already cutting back with the H1B visa cut-backs. Merrill Lynch and JP Morgan would not even give you an interview if they knew you were foreign.
MM banks have never had problems hiring international (Laz/BX/HL/ etc..)
To the best of my knowledge,
To the best of my knowledge, most banks currently hire H1B. Heres are the ones that don't
-Blackstone does not sponsor H1Bs for US positions (surprising given its scale)

-Union Bank Cali
-M&T
-Cap One
-BMO CM

PM me of you need more info
In general, Goldman Sachs and
In general, Goldman Sachs and Credit Suisse are known to be very generous with sponsoring internationals. They will take the best talent regardless of where there are from. Despite what they say, other firms are much more stringent with H1Bs. This is both pre- and post- TARP.
macro while you are right
macro while you are right that goldman and cs sponsor H1bs, there is no thing such as generosity....if you are good enough, they will hire you and work out your H1B, but the same thing applies to most other banks as well. I am sure JPM doesnt go into recruiting thinking we are only going to hire 30 of the best H1Bs ... once you get the offer, only then do all the big banks (i wont say BBs only) start working around your work status
Of course the term
Of course the term "generosity" is meant in comparison with the other banks. Although I know nothing of their internal policies, several of my international friends were told by most of the banks that their immigration status would be an issue, whereas GS and CS told them to not sweat it. One of them was actually given an offer by JPMorgan, which was later rescinded when they found out that she was not a citizen. Another was told during the interview process with several banks that it would be difficult for them to get an offer. Guess where they are working now?
