Swinging through the jungle of information, I found a little nugget that might help you out! Based on the highest ranked content on WSO, Barclays' stance on sponsorship seems a bit iffy. A user mentioned that during their phone screen, they indicated they had STEM OPT and didn't require sponsorship right out of undergrad, and they were able to move along in the process. This was specifically for the Menlo Park location, and the person they spoke to was an international student in the past as well.
So, while there isn't a clear "yes" or "no" to your question, it appears that Barclays may consider candidates with STEM OPT. However, it's always best to confirm directly with the firm or through networking to get the most current and specific information regarding their sponsorship policies. If you're swinging from vine to vine looking for more details, don't hesitate to reach out to someone who's recently gone through the process with Barclays.
