Apply to multiple offices within the same bank

Hey guys,

Does anyone know how office preferences in SA apps work? For example, would your application be sent out simultaneously to all locations or just your top choice at first? If all locations can review your application, can they see your location preferences and is this different across banks?

I’ve recently secured an offer from a city with a smaller finance scene (think Vancouver, Montreal, Calgary) for this summer and am applying for a different location within the same bank but hoping not to upset my team.
 

Would greatly appreciate your thoughts if you’ve been involved in the process!
