had barcap 2nd round, ms phone interview so far. have Citi line up this week. haven't heard back from any other banks now and it's worrying me now...

 

Nope, their app deadline was only a couple days ago but someone here mentioned they already interviewed few people. Not sure if they have sent out the "legit" first round invites yet..

 

Based oversea. Good to hear, that means I haven't gotten dinged yet. The non-international deadline wasn't THAT early if I remembered correctly, it was the same time as Citi and MS. Thanks for the info though.

 

To those who had Citi's first round, did you finish all 3 phone-ins? I have only finished 2 so fars and haven't even heard back from the third interview. Wondering if I should email HR abt it

 

Finished 1st round about a week ago.

I think Morgan Stanley is general Asia Pacific? You might specify location preference later - personally I would only want to work in HK if I got the offer.

This is the email I got:

"Following your first round interview for the 2014 Investment Banking Division summer internship in Asia Pacific we would like to invite you for a second round interview.

Please note that this interview will be via Skype. Please can you reply to this email confirming your Skype login name as the interviewer will use this to contact you."

 

I heard from Wharton friends that they and their friends haven't even heard back from JPM, CS, GS IBD so I think others who said they heard back are most likely applying for different positions like AM or S&T. unless someone knows otherwise

guys just as assurance, i just completed my Citi 1st rounds 2 days ago and my friends have yet to complete theirs so i'm sure they're still in the process of deliberating who will be selected for superday

just wondering, anyone based in US heard back from UBS or ML (Hong Kong) yet? Thanks!

UBS and BAML (you should get used to just saying Bank of America, since they are dropping the ML name soon) have BOTH sent out phone interviews for their first round. if you haven't heard back from either, it probably means you did poorly on the online test.

this info only applies for those in the US and canada- dunno about others

In the off chance that someone applied to mainland China offices or has experience in them, do you have a general idea of what to expect in interviews?
