Hi all,
I am currently recruiting for investment banking, but I would like to have a backup plan in case the worst comes to worst and I don't land anything. What is the recruiting timeline for equity research?
Thanks

From what I remember, last year:
- JPM & BofA opened mid/late Jan, JPM began superdays early May.
- Evercore & Goldman opened late Feb/early March, Evercore interviewed early -> mid April.
- Citi opened sometime March/April and began interviews late April / early March.
- Other small places ik opened mid April and interviewed early May -> Summer.
- Barclays and BofA interview through late summer.
Hope this helps.
Is this for full time or internships? I’m assuming it’s the year before for the next summer? Do you happen to know the timeline for 2025 FT, and if opportunities will come in January?
