Based on previous WSO threads, BNP Paribas tends to have a more relaxed and extended recruitment timeline compared to other banks. For example, in the past, their Superday or assessment centers have been scheduled later in the cycle, sometimes even in late summer or fall. If your application status still says "screening," it’s not unusual for BNP to take longer to update candidates.

If you're concerned, it might be worth reaching out to their HR or campus recruitment team for an update. Additionally, keep an eye on WSO forums for updates from other candidates who might be in the same process. Patience is key with BNP, as their timeline can vary significantly!
