are there less spots this year?
Ignore my seniority (not an analyst) but I am a current sophomore at a non-Ivy target. Looking around my finance club it seems placements is definitely below what the previous classes got at around this point of the recruiting cycle. Only the best kids in the club have offers while most of the "mediocre" analysts are still recruiting, while in previous years almost everyone on the club gets at least a BB offer. Speaking to some friends at other targets, it seems they are having the same issue.
Yes, but nothing significant.
Also a target non-ivy school here, and what I can say is that offers are definitely starting to roll out here at JPM/MS and some MM and EBs, but thats all I've seen, not really paying attention too much tbf.
Actual an1 here. I will say every class thinks their class is the hardest year for recruiting. The class sizes are all generally the same outside of some banks expanding and some banks cutting. At an EB and it feels like every year it’s the largest it’s ever been lol.
I genuinely think the next cycle is even more cooked. I run recruiting for a finance club at my school (mid target ivy), and freshmens this year are coming in with 2 hedge fund internships during highschool
Competition is higher every year but I think in general number of spots at top BB/EB do increase. I mean it’s expected the bar is raised higher and higher each year
UVA AIF?
In the UK, yes.
I know one BB that cut their internship class from 50 to 20 ish in FO.
Most places are going with the approach of only hiring the numbers they need as opposed to taking in a lot of interns and converting a %.
Which BB is this?
US BB
