APAC Asia IBD Recruiting 2025 (Class of 2027) Megathread

Hi all, 

I am a Sophomore at a US university interested in recruiting for HK IBD. Does anyone have any insights or tips on how to approach this process? Whether that be timeline, interviews, networking, culture at each firm, etc. Anything would help! 

If I could DM any of you, that would also be tremendous, thanks!
