The best groups are probably done with placement. It's not awful to start in a product group at Barc though, given you can lateral internally via their internal rotation program after 6-12 months on the desk.
Incoming 2025 SA. I'm pretty sure placement isn't until late this year early next year?
Oh what I thought FT placement. Nah chill then, you’re fine. Think about this more towards February
Could you please elaborate on the "internal rotation program after 6-12 months"? Is it a thing in the London office as well?
I am joining a product group in capital markets soon.
bump
I know there PU&I group is probs one of their top if not THE top group
