Analyst Spots

Anyone involved in the recruiting process know how many full-time analyst positions each bank is looking to fill in the US? Post what you know here. From my knowledge (these are approximate numbers heard from recruiters/analysts):

Rothschild: 13 full-time (offers given to 8 of 8 summer analysts) Houlihan Lokey: 40 full-time

I know Citi and BofA are looking to hire more than the other BB's, but I don't know how many. JPM, GS, UBS appear to be mostly done with their analyst recruiting.

UBS is recruiting GS is almost done recruiting from what I know ( from just talking to people)

Most top boutiques have filled their spots with summers but might have 1-5 spots open depending on the office.

 

Not sure how many they're taking, but I think JEF is only giving interviews to people from targets.

this thread might be more IBD focused but do you guys have a sense of what the offer rates were in S&T for this year's interns at the undergrad and MBA/associate levels? I know last year it was around 15-30% for most banks... curious in case I'm back on the job market soon...

I was out of work for about six months last year when my group was cut and people I met at CFA events didn't want me to email them even...

 

My bank had about 50-60 something percent retention in FI S&T at the analyst level if I had to guess. There were less than 15 to begin with though.

I guess its pretty high, compared with retention last year, but most trading desks overfired... and that combined with the fact that they'd much prefer to recruit out of SA compared with FT, then I can't say I was surprised the number was pretty high. Since the class was so small, I'd say the people were pretty desired... most people who got offers got a few desks.

No clue what the exact number is, but I interned this past summer in IB and many of my friends who I thought were shoe-ins didn't receive an offer.

 

I don't know which division you mean 12345... but CS is not hiring FT IBD as far as I know. They are hiring in Equity S&T and some FI S&T from what I've heard.

How many 09s were deferred?

Fair enough, I know they aren't hiring at my target in IBD... so I think it must be pretty limited. I have no idea about # of deferrals.
