BofA SA 2022
The app was posted. This is super accelerated compared to last year when they opened apps on July 1st. Are they rolling? Will they be starting interviews now too?

Interesting. Thanks for the heads up too lol just applied. When I had a BofA info session earlier this year, they said they were shooting for late summer/early fall for Hirevues and SD's. Maybe they did switch around their time line this year. I'm gonna reach out to alumni and ask.
What the heck is this bro, these timelines are ridiculous.....
I know. Pretty sure when they came on campus early Spring, they said they are aiming late June/ early July for app opening lol
As funny as it sounds. JPM said the same thing last year. They mentioned there was a chance there super days would be in person in the fall. What a joke.
Anyone got Hirevue after submitting apps?
No? Didn't they just open apps yesterday? BofA HV is a lot more selective than MS or JPM.
BofA only sends Hirevue to those they actually select unlike JPM and MS. It's Hirevue -> Superday
What does the interview timeline look like for non-diversity?
Bump! Also interested
Last year it happened in August. But apps didn't open until July 1, so who knows this year.
Yeah I got my HireVue for both the apps I put in about a month after submitting (submitted on app open in May and did HireVue in mid June).
Does BofA do give hirevue to target kids? I thought BofA start with an interview at least at my school
You'll get a hirevue mate
I guess I was mistaken. thanks for the insight lol
Does anyone know if you can only hirevue for one BofA office? Was curious to know.
I can give u my perspective as an incoming IB SA at Bofa. Networked heavily with two offices but only got hirevue from first choice, even though the Hirevue questions were standard for all offices. In my view, you will only be in contention for your top choice
Anyone know when first wave of Hirevues will be sent out?
lol my contacts at BofA barely know anything. Even they were told apps would open in July, then HR just blindsided everybody and opened them in May.
they just came out I believe
Applied for the sophomore program most of the analysts and associates I followed up with had no clue that they were recruiting so early. No plans for interviews yet according to them. Strange a bunch of diversity kids already got offers
Just received a HireVue invite. You also only have two days to submit.
When did you apply?
What office did you put as preferred?
Applied last week with Palo Alto as preferred. Attended Regional Office Spotlight and Networking Session as well. No doubt this accelerated my application. Good luck all!
What questions did you get in Hirevue?
Someone on the recruiting just told me they're expecting everything to be mostly done by end of June.
Is this NY non-diversity?
Ya
Can confirm from talking with alumni
Got a hirevue today, only put down NYC as preferred location
I got a hirevue as well. Have you completed yours?
No, gonna do it sunday prob. You?
Are you target/diversity?
I went through the BofA hirevue last year when I went through one of my most extensive networking efforts (spoke to analysts, associates, VP, and a very senior MD). Eventually got the hirevue and prepped all weekend for it but as luck would have it, I fucked it up. There's just something about a hirevue, probably the fact that I am answering to a screen, but I never did well in an hirevue. Predictable enough but I don't get the superday because of my lackluster performance.
Anyways, I wouldn't want the same thing to happen to the people going through the process this year so I am listing the questions I got. Not saying these will be the same ones you'll get but should be helpful in preparing or giving some sort of an idea. Got about 3 minutes per question and no retries.
All the best and hope y'all do better than I did. Def give a silver banana if you found this helpful.
Incoming SA at BofA and I think I got most of these questions too. I definitely do remember getting "tell us about yourself and why BofA" - that question really tripped me up because I was expecting it to be two separate questions so the time limit was definitely stressful.
you dont happen to remember that time limit do you? lmao
This is really great advice. If I could hug you I would.
Do you have any insights on how to advance to the next round?
Did any more hirevues come out?
the invites are rolling.
Anyone complete the hirevue?
You got one already? Are you target or diversity?
Diversity but other non-targets non diversity that got invited to accelerated recruiting received it as well
Is the hirevue customized to each location?
No idea. Have you taken it yet?
Nope
General for all IB SAs
Diversity non target haven’t received anything applied about a week ago
Has anyone else received/completed the hirevue? Any insight?
not bad at all.
pretty standard questions.
Do you want to drop the questions and be showered with silver bananas?
Is there any more HireVue being released?
Bump. Non-target non-diversity and would be sad if I already got cut
Same
Most definitely. They are far from being done with recruiting.
Any non-target, non-diversity receive a hirevue?
I haven't yet. Have you?
Same
I did, go to a Villanova/Temple level school and networked with a VP, no alumni in NYC office which was the only office I applied and networked at
Yes I did

OP here, how do I turn of notifications for this post?
Click the unsubscribe button (looks like a wifi signal at the top of the page on the right-hand side in the same line as "intern in IB - Ind").
Target, non-diversity. Got a phone screen for a regional office. Phone screen not hirevue
Did you do a hirevue?
I did not. I did network though.
pm me, in the same boat.
pm me, in the same boat.
Also got a phone screen, you have yours yet?
How did the phone screen go? Any guidance?
I accepted another offer so had to cancel the phone screen.
How did the phone screen go?
Hey any tips on the phone screen? I have one for a regional office as well. Looks like some regionals don’t do HVs at all? Or is that after the screen. Thanks
.
Will BofA accelerate if I have another offer from a BB?
Which other BB?
pretty sure, but it depends. Had a buddy who was able to a few years ago but he met 10+ people from the office and had an exploding offer.
For all those asking about how BAML accelerates: you need to network with a handful of analysts at regional offices, especially those who run recruiting (if u have a call with any analyst, they will likely connect u with the analysts in charge of recruiting if u ask nicely). They are having the first wave of recruitment rn, but will have another later. I was told by a senior banker that HireVues dont really matter if you network since they cannot sit and review dozens of them.
Source: I am in the accelerated process at a regional office and did all these things.
What about for NYC? Do you know? How do I get the Hirevue as a non-target? Spoke with 2 analysts so far and will with a MD next week.

Anyone know when to expect a response after technical screening?
I did the phone screen too and I asked at the end about recruiting and the guy said he wasn't part of recruiting so I am very confused
same, which office?
Any Georgetown people got a hirevue?
Yes just got one today
yeah got one
How much did you guys network? Did you have someone pushing your resume?
did they open up the application for S&T? I dont see it open
Any Big 10 non-targets get the Hirevue yet?
Did you get it today? And are you an eastern or midwestern Big 10?
.
I had 5 questions, 3 minute limit for each. Also, they only let you record once unlike other banks. The questions were all behavioral and seemed very disorganized. I swear one of them was asking like 3 different ideas in one sentence - hard to give a concise and good response with questions like that. You just end up spinning some dumb story with all sorts of ideas. I don’t remember the exact questions but expect some long question like “tell us why you’re interested in the position you applied for and how you’ve been trying to further your professional development and why you think you’re qualified for the position.”
Are you target and is this NYC non-diversity?
Yeah I thought the wording was a bit strange too but still pretty standard overall
If I haven't received the HV for NYC yet, am I dinged?
Got a Hirevue for GCM but also applied to IB. Does this mean I'm dinged for IB?
You are only considered for one location/position so unfortunately, yes.
wait, i got a hirevue for GCM and IB?
Anyone just get Charlotte?
Did you get HV yet? I think Charlotte is a lot pushed back in schedule compared to other regionals as per the posters here.
Just got the video interview. Does anyone know the questions asked?
All behavioral for mine. Simple questions like why BoA, walk me through your resume, etc.
Can't remember about resume but def why BoA
R u target or non-target? Diversity or non-diversity?
Diversity and I go to a top 10 school. I also applied like the day the application opened.
Does is specify city for most people? Mine just said "Global Investment Banking Summer Analyst Program - 2022".
.
NYC?
R u target?
For baml yes
Anyone know when SDs come out after taking the HV?
I contacted a recruiter, apparently the earliest SDs are scheduled for 2nd week of June, not sure when they come out though.
Do you know if this is for NY?
Anyone heard back from Hirevue?
Not yet
nevermind, i actually don't know how to delete a post lol i'm new
you can't
.
Just received one
Super day or HireVue?
HV
Are you target/diversity?
If I sent in my app on the second day of app opening and still haven't receive a HV, am I dinged? I go to a target and networked a bit
Doubt it. They just have a lot of applications to get through and usually send hirevues in waves.
To anyone who has done the hv, do you mind telling us what's asked?
I did the HV and all I am going to say is that the questions were worded weirdly and asked like three things per question. It was hard to try to answer every part of the question while getting the points I wanted to get across.
Anyone know anything about Rates and Currencies?
Huge deal volume, good job stability, super boring work lol
Do you have an interview with them?
(Presumably first) superday this friday
Does this include IBD NYC?
Just got HV for nyc ib 2022. Anyone know what was asked?
All behavioral but complex multi-dimensional questions.
Remember any of them?
how much time were you given to answer each question? 90 secs, 2 mins etc. thanks for your post btw
Received Hirevue at 4 pm ET today. Non-target non-diversity and for NYC. Applied day after application opened. Seems like this is likely a wave because it seemed automated.
.
Did anyone receive a phone screen invite for the regional offices after submitting the hirevue? Any insight?
did a hirevue and a sd w a regional office, pretty sure i got dinged haha. thought id share the timeline tho
yall got this!!
which office and for this cycle?
ya for 2022
