Bank of America Sophomore 2021
They opened apps today but I didn't see anything sophomore specific app. Are we supposed to apply through the general app? Is the app even open?

Didn’t see anything besides for LATAM. I hope they didn’t cancel the program...
Same
Seems like it's just not up yet. There's no way they'd do LATAM sophomore but not for other groups (then again JPM does that).
S&T isn't up for juniors either. Idk. The HR email said that GCIB would all be posted at 5edt.
Are applications rolling?
I thought there was never a sophomore only app? I was under the impression it was both soph and juniors in one app?
No. There was an app for So SA for 2020.
i checked today and they got rid of the LATAM soph app? so maybe no sophs for 2021? rip
I have friends at BAML. Sophomore recruiting is set to happen, just a little bit later. August 1 from what I’ve heard.
bump, thought soph apps were supposed to come out today Aug 1st?
They did. I applied.
Does anyone know anything?
BOFA was late for Juniors
Anyone know if BAML is rolling? Or can I take my time applying
Rolling.
Are there any disadvantages to rolling? I feel like if I wait a couple days my application won't get lost in the mass applications being sent in within the first couple days. Maybe I am wrong though
Anyone have any insights regarding the timelines for hirevues and eventual first rounds/super days?
My school’s BofA recruiter says to expect 3-4 weeks after your app has been submitted for a hirevue notification. Not exactly sure what the superday timeline is after that.
Bump. Anyone get word on the timeline? Last year they ran the first superday early sept and then mid to late September for the 2nd one
Do you know when last year's app opened?
Confusion- was cover letter required/recommended? Didn't see where to submit. Did someone else submit it?
I’m not sure if it was required but I did submit one.
I heard some sophomores already have offers....
They haven’t even released hirevues yet
Bro like 1 or 2 kids on here have said they got either a HV or offer. Take that with a grain of salt because if they actually started the process than you'd be seeing more posts about HVs
HV's are out and there have been some SD's
ALL hirevues are out?
.
lmao you're so pressed, I'm throwing information out that people are asking about...
Yesterday I saw a sophomore from my school put on their LinkedIn they're going to BofA next summer. I am sure a few offers went out already
my point exactly, what school? idk if that's too personal but you're also anonymous
Large state southern school
.
Damn 3.7 at target with two finance internships including one boutique IB with networking. No HV for NYC. Oh well can't say I'm super surprised though considering how competitive sophomore programs are. Plus a 3.7 isn't anything to write home about I guess.
I feel like you'll deff get a HV man, most of the kids who are getting HV's either knew somebody or had an exploding offer. I would not worry
I am also non div FWIW
These offers may have been linked to the prior freshman diversity pipeline program akin to GS's Undergrad Camp. It seems "normal" recruiting has yet to take place. Also, keep in mind that, along with UBS, BofA has historically some of the larger sophomore classes.
And how big do you think UBS and BAML sophomore classes are?
Just got the Hirevue. IBD for NYC.
Target?
Semi Target on the whole, but target for BofA.
Got mine this morning, email says it will take 15 mins -- was yours 3-5 questions then?
Got mine this morning as well. I’m so nervous.
Anyone from Umich got HV?
Does anyone know if their interviews are coming in waves or are they done sending them out?
I got the hirevue. non target, didn't network and under a 3.7. idk how
Diversity? If you don’t mind me asking.
Anyone with word on superday invites? Seems like most HVs are out, anyone hear?
Got mine September 14
Superday invite or HV?
Got a hirevue without networking. Anyone know if hirevues are at all selective like the ones for GS? Wondering if my submission will get touched by recruiters.
BofA HVs are known to be very selective - just like GS - so, congrats for getting one, especially without networking. The sophs that get HVs for BofA are either top candidates from targets, kids who networked aggressively, or just by pure luck of the draw which seems to be your case. They take anywhere from 2 days to 2 weeks to get back to you with info about a super day. With this particular most recent wave of HVs, expect a super day to be in the next week or 2. Good luck because it's only getting harder
Damn no HV ...
3.9+ from target with networking didn't get an hv with ib after freshman year so I guess it's ok not getting one
Winners don't make excuses...
Got a hire vue this morning; 3.7, target, diversity, no networking
Got HV today, 3.9 from non-target, diversity summer program participant. Any sophomores who have already completed their HV can say if there are any technical questions?
5 behavioral Qs
No techs
has anyone heard back after the hirevue
I still have not, would love to hear if anyone else has
My friend (female, non-target) got a super day invite for NYC. Just got the email. Best of luck everyone.
I also just got an NYC superday!
I also got a superday
when did you finish your hv
.
Got HV on 14th completed on the 16th. Haven't heard back about next steps. Still have chance?
Same...Also got it on 14th
superdays are this week
All of them? Or do they come in waves?
bump
I have no idea
Thanks and good luck!
Thanks and don't loose hope. Pray if you are Christian and God will make a way.
Anyone with updates after their super days?
nope :( i wonder when they'll start giving offers... im guessing by friday?
Did you guys have 2 separate interviews or just 1?
how did the interviews go for you guys
From what I understand offers will be coming out either tomorrow or Friday. Heard before the weekend
Ohh thanks and good luck! Where did you hear this from btw?
.
I still haven’t heard back from my hirevue. Are there more superdays?
in the same situation and wondering the same thing :|
same:|
Anyone get a call today saying they need more time or smth? Does this mean I'm on hold or just that decisions are delayed? For S&T, SD last week.
anybody with an offer trying to make a GroupMe chat?
When did you get your offer? A bunch of people had super days this week and interview tomorrow. Were you a part of the earlier round?
let's do it! I got an offer as well
PM me I'll start it
just got an offer for IBD NY! would love to join a groupme
Wow nice. Assuming you interviewed last week right? Did your interviewer or whoever called you say if more offers are coming??
For those who got offers, what's your sophomore intern compensation? Feel like their salary is mad low. Got $20/hr for an expected 60 hrs a week, $30/hr for OT. 10 weeks. Meaning $12k pre-tax no OT.
Math is off here, anything over 40 is OT. so 14k. Also, not that deep tbh, BofA pays really weel junior summer and FT.
Has anyone gotten a LatAm Interview? Does anyone know the format of that?
an interview specifically for the latam group? I knew that group recruited separately at JPM didn't know it was that way at BAML too
Yes, it seems so. I am wondering if anyone is in a similar boat.
Anyone have info on when offers are coming out
did you have your sd this week?
Got HV on the 24th. Non-target, diversity summer program, 3.7ish, networked pretty hard. I'd assume there's another round if I got the HV so recently but does anyone know?
and you haven't heard about a SD yet? did a hirevue a week or two before you but wasn't part of the SD group this week so hoping i may still have a chance
Are offers from this week’s SDs coming out today or will they be out next week?
wondering the same thing
Keep each other updates here with offers from SDs this week. Think they will most likely be coming out today
Did your interviewer specifically tell you that?
Any udpates anyone?
My contact said expect results before the weekend "most likely". Usually they don't call candidates until after they wrap up work for the day/weekend, they are usually pretty busy Friday afternoon trying to finalize things for the weekend. So if they call today I'd expect it to be later. No clue though, this is just my guess
I have a friend who told me they just got an acceptance. For me, I'm still waiting for a follow up on my HireVue.
via phone or email?
Phone
did your friend do superday this week for nyc ibd?
Don’t know if it’s for NYC but the superday was this week
anyone hear back for nyc ib? had my last SD on wednesday and havent heard anything
same boat!!
got the call tonight (Friday) around 7pm- but one of my interviewers did say they are still giving out offers from this week's SD's next week! don't lose hope!
Hi, if I still didn’t get an update from my HireVue, is it safe to say I didn’t make the cut to the Superday?
Congrats!! Can you PM? trying to start a groupme chat
congratulations!!
Radio silence
Do you guys know if there are multiple rounds or if they haven't reached out you are dinged?
does anybody know how many sophs they usually take (NY IBD)
My contact just informed me decisions have been made for this week SDs. Offers are given out super randomly, just depends if your interviewer wants to call you tonight or Monday.
thanks for the update
do u know if they inform rejects? or just never get back?
Lol banks never inform rejects for super days. It's a legal liability. They only inform rejects for everything before SD, so you can imagine anxiety is through the roof for all of us who haven't heard today
just out of curiosity, who did most people get interviewed by? I got interviewed by a senior MD and a director
Did anyone hear back for S&T?
Nah, although I got call a week later that they'll keep me updated or smth (barely awake so ide remember what they said). When was yours? Mine was the sept 23rd/24th batch.
Mine was September 29th
Any more updates from Saturday morning?
Would they call over the weekend or is Monday the earliest we could hear back?
same question hahahah
i really don't know if this is right - but my best guess is that monday's the earliest they would get back since BAML has protected weekends
hope that's the case as there are no more updates this saturday...
If they make additional offers on Monday any guesses as to what time of day?
i dont have any insider info but i would assume later in the day after they finish wrapping up work
does everyone else's portal still say "interview"?
no updates for me bc my portal says thanks for scheduling an interview, and my superday was last week :((
There is a comment a bit further up that says "just depends if your interviewer wants to call you tonight or Monday." People who received offers already: were you called by your interviewer/s? Is this standard practice after super days? I sort of assumed it'd be a call from HR and not interviewer.
received a call from my interviewer not recruiting
Same. For me it was my interviewer deciding to call, not HR sending me an email. It appears decisions have been made already, its just HR that has not disclosed them yet.
More offers coming out tomorrow guys don't lose hope
Has anyone heard anything yet today?
Anyone with a Superday on Thursday have an offer?
Had both interviews on Thursday, got offer on Friday. NYC IBD.
havent heard anything and my superday was monday
Has anyone heard anything yet today? Do y'all think they will call more in the afternoon/night than during the day? Also congrats for everyone who did get it!!
