Based on the most helpful WSO content, Queen's University (Smith School of Business) is highly regarded for its placement in high finance roles. From 2016-2021, Queen's University had 533 undergraduates who graduated into high finance roles, with 173 specifically in Investment Banking Division (IBD). This strong track record likely contributes to the preference for Queen's students in competitive interview processes.

Regarding the reduction in case numbers, while the context does not provide specific details about Burgundy SA or the 2025 recruitment cycle, it is common for firms to adjust their interview and hiring processes based on various factors, including economic conditions and internal hiring needs. This can result in fewer interview slots and more stringent selection criteria.

Hi cashisking, I am applying Burgundy and thinking of a few other money managers in 2025. Do you happen to come across an application timeline tracker / forum / thread when you apply those?
