In Toronto: Barclays, CS, GS, RBC have all done some hiring (not sure if there's more to come from them other than RBC). MS is currently in the process of hiring. Hiring will be ramping up in September for the rest.

In Calgary: JPM, GS, Citi have all begun their processes with superdays coming up soon. The remaining Calgary BBs should follow suit soon.

 

If you're from an Ivy League, you'll be put on par with the Ivey/Queens applicants, if not a notch higher. You'll just need to have a clear story as to why you want to work in Canada vs US.

 

Friend of mine said he has first round CIBC Markets. Haven't heard anything about RBC or Scotia though. Have you already heard back from BMO and TD?

 

I haven't heard back from RBC S&T, but a friend of mine got the Scotia superday. Have you heard anything yet?
