Have you heard back about 2nd round for Barcap?
hi have you guys applied to mainly hong kong or singapore positions? Credit Suisse (SG) and BAML (SG) have started first rounds and Stanchart (SG) have sent out notifications for first rounds as well..
I applied for both. Yeah just heard back from CS about the networking event next week.
MS has sent out their first rounds as well.
Let's keep each other updated on this post then.
MS, Nomura, Citi, ML, BarCap have all sent out invites. BarCap has also started to send out 2nd rounds.
ML HK's application isn't due until December 1st though, are you referring to their Singapore office or HK as well?
they are doing rolling, at least for HK i think because i heard somebody at my school got first round with them already earlier in the month.
Good look everyone!
Are you guys based in Asia?
has anyone heard back from any singapore offices?
Has anyone heard back from JPMorgan singapore SA IBD? I was invited to do numerical/logical tests, no update so far.
Just heard back from them abt 1st rounds. Just curious, I thought that JPM doesn't have numerical/logical tests?
Are you guys based in Asia or overseas applicants?
I am based overseas. Yourself?
Based overseas too. Though I haven't heard back from anyone unlike everyone on this thread. This is kind of worrying now.
JPM does have numerical/logical tests. I was sent out a few weeks ago for both Europe and Asia. I am based overseas. MS is doing first rounds right now for Asia
it seems that JPM doesn't do any tests for hong kong.. just heard back from them for 1st rd phone interviews
Haven't heard back from JPM yet at all.
DB started 1st rounds too
DB has 1st rounds?! Is that the sudden very brief phone interview that is also for you to ask questions? They sent kids straight to superday last year after Online Test.
No it's a face to face interview. I'm based in Asia though so maybe it's different.
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...
When was your 1st round with barcap? Mine was on Nov 18 and I still haven't heard back. Wondering what it means.
Had 2 MS 1st round phone interviews so far, and just got notified about JPM 1st round via email.
Just got first round invitation from HSBC
Had first rounds with BarCap and MS. Haven't heard back from anybody else yet. Worrying.
just had first rounds with MS. emails from JPM about first rounds were sent out as well.
Anybody know when we'll hear back about if we move to the next round (superday) for MS?
next round (2nd round) is not superday, it's skype interview most likely (at least for last year). Shall be out this week or next week. superday is MLK weekend.
Do you know what to expect for second round by any chance? How is it different from first round, more behavioural etc. ? Thanks in advance.
I'm US-based. Had MS&Citi HK a week ago, also heard from JPM like 24hrs ago.
Haven't heard from CS/DB/GS/UBS. I think I took some tests for DB and UBS, though.
Second that, I'm overseas based and haven't heard from CS/GS/JPM Singapore
did anyone hear from MS HK second round?
Anyone did ML first round..?
did you get an invitation?
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..
yeah i said that. i heard a person at my school (in the U.S.) has already gotten it but i think she applied really early, by the non-international deadline. just curious, where are you based in?
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.
yup it was half a month earlier, and just a few days before MS
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
did anyone hear from MS skype interview??
I got all 3 bankers emails even before I had my first interview for Citi.
Just got Nomurw first round. Finally....
Is the first rd interviewer HR?
anyone heard back regarding 2nd rounds for CS and BAML Singapore?
Happy to join this topic. worrying about the 2nd rd with MS. it seems they have finished 2nd rd in asia this week..
Really? Did anyone have MS 2nd rounds yet?
Haven't heard back from MS yet
My first round with MS was two phone interviews with VPs.
I mean..Nomura
Where did you hear that? I just had first round with Nomura a week ago
CS came out last week
Where are you based?
MS is driving me crazy...According to the thread last week, ppl usually hear back between 7-12 days after the interview.
First round was 1 analyst & 1 ED, both alums.
that's true. CS sent out invitations early this week. US based.
yup CS US based. Only bank that hasnt released (I think) is DB. Citi sent out superdays already
Has GS started already?
Just got second round for MS Asia (skype interview).
when did you finish the 1 rd?
where? singapore? hk? shanghai?
Citi HK IBD superday is out! I'm us-based.
Do they give out rejection emails if you don't make it to superday?
Has anyone heard back from UBS Singapore (SA IBD) ?
Nope. I haven't heard from Citi, UBS, DB, CS, GS for SG SA IBD. (Based in US)
In the same position, though I think that's just us. Sounds like everyone else here has heard back already
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."
When was your first round?
first rounds were last week
Has anyone heard back from GS (IBD SA)? Thanks!!!
Havent heard back from MS or Citi after the initial phone interviews. Guess got dinged:(
Yea same here US based applying for HK. Haven't heard from DB UBS CS GS. Guess got dinged by MS since I didn't even hear back after phone interviews. Still waiting for Citi and barcap. Desolately need some good news:(
Same position as most of you although still in the process with Citi 1st rounds. Has anyone US-Based heard back from JPM, CS & GS for Singapore & HK?
JPM and CS are out. GS not yet. anyone hear back from DB?
For CS I applied for both IBD and S&T. I heard from ST Last Monday. But for IBD, no friend at my school heard back . I'm US target.
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
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
JPM and CS heard back for sure. IBD not GS and DB though
Are all Citi first-rounds done?
not yet
Thanks, such a relief knowing GS IBD isn't out yet....
GS is out at wharton. pretty sure no one has heard back for JPM CS IBD SG
Seems like BAML doesn't get much love, no one really mentioned it here..
thought i did mention them. Still haven't heard back unfortunately.
Just heard back from GS IBD HK
Same GS IBD HK
i dont fookin' believe it i ain't getting a job. sheeeet
For GS HK, are you guys in classic ibd or Fianncing group?

Anyone US based got final round for Citi? I heard some ppl already got it...
true story..
ughh did my Citi interview a week ago and haven't heard anything from them ever since..does that mean I'm dinged already? really like Citi:(
I haven't heard from Citi about superday as well.......
where are all of you people from? targets? US colleges? I got a Citi superday interview, and i come from a US semi target
when is your Citi superday? mine is jan 17-19 in ny. they didn't specify which day on the weekend yet.
When did you have your interviews for Citi, matayo?
november where are you people from?
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
Hey buddy, if you are referring to that recent news, they aren't including the ML part in their official registration name, but they are still using it in marketing materials and other occasions. A lot of bankers still refer it as ML. Thanks for the info though!
Heard back from BAML a week ago for phone interviews. Haven't heard back from UBS, CS, DB...just assuming I didn't pass the resume screen here...US based
JPM HK second round out! us-based.
trader07, how many phone interviews did you get? when was your first round?

what exactly is JPM"s process like? is the 2nd round another phone interview?
Yes, phone interview! Did mine last week.
Anyone heard from DB yet?
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?
a friend did UBS 1st rd last week

Dahhhhh got dinged by Barcap:(
DogCage, which location do you refer to?
HK IBD US based
