REGULAR RECRUITMENT PROCESS / APPLICATIONS / INTERVIEWS / SUPERDAYS

Now that accelerated recruiting for summer 2019 is coming to a close, I wanted to start this thread so that we could keep track of where each bank is at in the process. Feel free to share any relevant information including first rounds, super days and offers. Please note this is US focused. Good luck to everyone!

2019 Summer Analyst Recruiting

Banks have started opening their applications to target schools earlier than ever in an attemmpt to lockin talent well ahed of time. By now 2019 applications would be closed for most, if not all, American banks.

 

I am a current part-time student at a top school halfway through my MBA. I was told that I would not be hired on as an associate at a MM IB since I had not finished my MBA. This sounds ridiculous since I have already completed the analytical finance/investment/corporate finance course sets. Based on their logic, I could take all management/ops/qualitative courses from here on out and add zero value to my financial skills and still be a viable candidate post-graduation. Anyone have any insight on this or could explain their stance? Is this a regulatory requirement?

 

Michigan State Student here: was recently told by faculty that recruiting for summer 2019 will begin in April (on-campus visits, etc.) with final interviews wrapping up over the summer. Definitely a more accelerated process compared to last year. Don't know if this is only for non-target schools like MSU, but that is what I have heard.

 

Many if not most non-Wharton/Stern target kids don't take corp fin/valuation before recruiting or at all - that wouldn't be as big a concern to me as the lack of work experience these kids have to even talk about in their interviews...

 

On the same boat here, I think a lot of boutiques (not all!) already did recruiting for this upcoming summer, but I bet there's still a couple out there that haven't. At this point cold emailing or calling local firms is our best choice

 

Anyone heard anything about GS and MS recruiting timelines for 2019 SA positions?

At my school, students don't even get access to OCR resources until junior fall . . . wonder how this will work.

 

GS doing an accelerated and regular app timeline. Accelerated will open from March 15-April 15, and those who apply then cannot apply during regular applications if they don't get an early offer, so it's a way for candidates to hedge if they're ready or not yet. I've heard they're trying to take the majority of their class in the early pool

 

I keep meeting analysts and some Associates, MD's occasionally, and I take their contacts info and email them w/ a Thank you note -- just to establish a connection. Most of them respond with something nice.

The plan is to email them again in the spring / summer, and to ask for a firm visit or something. The whole networking game is so ambiguous, though, like I doubt they have much power to make an impact -- if you've got the GPA and the school name, and some demonstrated interest in finance, then you've got the interview, and everything beyond that is up to you.

What would you say is a "helpful contact"?

 

I am fairly certain you apply through the regular application portal. Recruitment year- 2019. You can select IBD for division and US cities for location, neither of which were available yesterday. One problem though- for "when can you start work?" the answer selections end with December of this year.

 

If you're having issues with accessing the Early Application for GS: This is probably because you applied last year, so it says you're trying to apply for "incompatible" positions.

Solution: 1. Create a new profile with another email you have or a fake email. 2. The application will open without a problem and it'll ask you somewhere to put your primary email. 3. In that primary email, you can just put the email you used before - it will let you use whatever email you want. :)

 

No one really cares about this, in the end they just look at resumes. It's obvious that if you're applying for a Summer 2019 internship, you'd be available to work at that time, and no one will want you to start working in Dec 2018.

 

Does anyone know how long it takes to a receive a HireVue if you are selected for one? Average timespan?

 

What does an undergrad 10-week GS analyst intern make? Does IB intern make a lot more than securities? After rent and expenses, what can you realistically save? Sorry if dumb questions, I'm just a young puppy trying to learn.

 

is recruiting by school teams confirmed? recently had interviews with school recruiting team, i have no idea what the rest of the timeline is... any input? trying to figure out when these school-team based offers will be out
