Based on previous WSO threads, there isn't specific information about the exact timeline or status of the BMO FIG (Financial Institutions Group) NY process. However, if you're referring to recruiting or interviews, it's common for processes in investment banking to vary depending on the role (analyst, associate, etc.) and the time of year.

Typically, for summer analyst or associate roles, applications and interviews are conducted months in advance, often starting in the spring or summer of the prior year. If you're in the middle of the process, it’s a good idea to stay proactive by networking with current employees, preparing for technical and behavioral questions, and keeping an eye on updates from the firm.

If you're looking for more specific updates, consider reaching out to peers or colleagues who might also be in the process or checking for recent discussions on WSO forums.

any idea if they will be interviewing over christmas? only a couple weeks before i imagine ppl start taking off for the holidays

 

They said they want to wrap up before Christmas. I assume they’re in the later stages of the process.

 

What's the deal with this process? They've been opening and closing their apps since November.
