ABSOLUTE LOL IF YOU THINK ANYONE IS HIRING RIGHT NOW

If you have a job, hold onto it for dear life, There isn't a single Finance job globally going forward right now.

Don't be confused by recruiters and talent acquisition desperately pumping up their KPI numbers to hold their own jobs.

If it helps. Spoke with a friend at HSBC today in London.

They are hiring. Not a tier 1 but decent base and relatively decent comp vs the other T2s (BNP etc).

Big area for them is their MM M&A Franchise. Sellsides mostly.

Ok then boyos.

when you get a job come back on here and let us know.

welcome to 2008 again. You kids are in for a massive shock.

Just cause  a company is adversity openings doesn’t mean they are hiring. Credit suisse has thousands of openings right now but we all know they ain’t hiring.

 

I know a bunch of people who are securing interviews (and jobs) for both pre- and post-MBA roles in private equity and banking. This is in the US, UK, and Europe. Yes, things are slower but they haven’t stopped.
