How much did you network?
A pretty good amount . Had the most connections to this bank to begin with so it’s my best shot . Non target.
What level did u network at AN/AS/VP/MD…?
How many connections roughly? If you don’t mind answering, would be helpful to know.
Does anyone know if IB opened up today? I can't find anything.
It wasn't there this morning with the other new openings, but it was added at around 1 PM est today.
Is it the one called "Global Investment Banking Summer Analyst Program" ?
Do you get a Hirevue right away?
No I haven’t received one yet. Kind of why I started this thread.
The HireVue for BofA is very selective basically a first round. Unlike JP Morgan who sends it right after you submit.
For bofa its HV —> Superday
Thanks. Any timeline?
Today’s info session said superday in April
Depends on what office you recruit for. For Chicago its unknown how much weight hirevues hold and its only HR that watches them. Its mostly lots of coffee chats as a supplement to first rounds and super day. This is Chicago only.
How much did you guys network
Nobody reply to me so I straight up gave up networking
You go to a target and no one replied to you ?
No. Haven’t received a hirevue since. Probably IP banned at this point .
Hireviews are being sent out in waves depending on school. 2nd-3rd week of March for T1 targets, 3rd-4th week for T2 targets, then i would assume everyone else after. Hireview then straight to sd.
When will we hear back if we are selected?
I believe they said super days in the first week of April, I don’t know how they break up the super days so not too sure abt that.
Any insight on how Chicago office exits?
dont want to be that guy but had my superday today. I got a call last friday and they said they were going to accelerate my process and gave me a hirevue earlier this week and sd on friday. Was only an hour long and they asked where bofa was on their list...? Trying to find meaning out of it- feel free to chime in
Interesting. Because many others have not received a hirevue. But I saw one girl accept an offer on LinkedIn but idk her and she doesn’t go to my university. Do you attend a target? All insight is appreciated as I do not have the expectation of receiving an offer.
Yup, glad to pitch in. I go to a public target who has BOFA on grounds info sessions and has explicitly said we are a target for them, so process might be different for you a bit. Had the superday and haven't heard back yet- will keep you updated.
anyone get Hirevues yet
Not yet. They are slowing down cuz Ik many kids use BoFA offers to trade for other places, so I think that's why they started to slow down.
Thanks for the insight.
any updates on bofa Chicago? Wondering if they have sent out any hirevues?
Don’t think they bother with hirevues lol
had a friend get a "accelerated process" superday (white male), but didn't work out so is part of the regular pile now. would expect late march early april for that to happen
Thanks for the insight.
Funny that this perfectly describes me too
any idea on first rounds/HireVue for Chicago office? (non diversity)
Buddy just got call today about upcoming Superday
You sure this is for Chicago? any idea if it is for EGRC or GiG?
Anyone from non-targets get any hirevues for the ny office?
Got one for NYC GCM from non target. Still waiting for GCIB
Just got hirevue for global markets, does BofA typically do hirevue-> Superday? Also does anyone know if it's technical at all historically?
Are u target/diversity?
Non target non diversity
Just got a hirevue for IB SA
Which office
Chi
divers?
No
Anyone applying to sophomore SA got a hirevue?
they wrap up junior SA and then do soph SA for however many spots they have left typically in the summer w diversity soph getting their process earlier, while nondiverse soph fill in at the back end (they take a couple every year i think)
anyone get hirevue from NY IB yet? non-diverse, semi-target. friend who's diverse got one from chicago yesterday
I haven’t
i got an email on monday giving a me hirevue. Not diversity round and at a target
which office did u rank first?
new york
capital market or IB
IB
any updates regarding chicago IB?
Have hirevues all been sent out or will they be sent out in waves?
Waves I think
Waves, target was sent out on Wednesday. Next wave is April 20th for nontargets and non accelerated.
any update on Houston?
got a hirevue like 4 days ago
how long do you think its gonna take to hear back for superday
insights into canadian process? heard first rounds are phone calls with team - no hirevues
Canadian process is done. Superdays were today.
can confirm this isn't true - at least for one office, there are some first rounds on monday
I should have clarified I was referring to Toronto, when people refer to BofA Canada that is generally the office they are referring to.
Got S&T hirevue today. Non-diversity
Any timeline info on SF/PA/LA?
LA is done
PA has already given out some offers
got an SF first round email today
What group is this for?
Any Non-Targets (non-diverse) receive a hirevue yet for IB?
I haven't, which offices did you apply to
Yes i did last week for chicagi
I had NY as my top preference, timelines may be different for each office idk
Anyone hear back from Hirevue yet? Does anyone know how long it takes to hear back
I haven't but someone there told me they are still reviewing them
following
They are sending superday invites for 13/14 on the 6th to my understanding. That timeline is about 5 days old.
I got mine yesterday
did you get your hirevue on the 28th or 29th? Target non-diversity?
Which office was this for? and what division?
Still true?
Lmao why did you throw poo? I was right, they sent out the Superday invites a few hours ago (April 6th).
any update regarding gig chi?
Can't believe BofA is giving so many non-targets offers this year. IB is really on the decline
Someone's salty about losing a spot to non target grinder lmaooo
I'm incoming FT analyst who already interned there. Just seeing all the non-target posts on LinkedIn getting likes from people at my group. I was hoping this year they would have more targets to boost the prestige, but they are taking people from community college level schools
People are throwing MS, but look at the recent rankings (tech ranking comes to mind as it is on the top of this forum), and tell me I am wrong. mf Citi getting better rank than BofA was unheard of a year or two ago
Lol our office isn’t even close to having filled spots yet and I can tell you this isn’t true
Did anyone receive SD inv today?
I haven’t . Still waiting . Did you get an invite?
Anyone know about superday timeline for rates and currencies? Especially SF
Non-Diversity, Non-Target. Any sense of timeline?
-
Any sd updates?
Any superday updates from the 3/28 and 3/29 HireVue wave?
WHY TF THIS DUDE FROM ABOVE LYING ABOUT APRIL 6TH SUPERDAYS FFS
BRO FR
Superday invites were sent out. Superdays on 13th and 14th, can choose which date and time. Me and a few others got the email a few hours ago. Sorry if you didn't get it, maybe next wave.
Anyone with updates on gig chi? Their process is pretty quiet but I’ve heard their first SD wave already went and there is only one more wave. Wondering if any offers are out or SD updates
Anyone get superday for S&T or rates & currencies NY?
yeah.
Is it in person? Are you target or diverse? And what day is it for? Which day did you receive hirevue
why u del comment
Any update on Chicago SD got a hirevue 28/29. For GiG/EGRC?
Spd for both are out. Don’t know how many there will be tho
friend who’s diverse but went thru the regular process at semi-target got offer for chicago egrc already
Are you diverse/target? is it an accelerated process?
Non-diverse, semi-target, normal process
Does anyone have insights on how many rounds the spd have and how technical it will be ?
anywhere from 3-5, apparently relatively technical although nothing too difficult
just got invited to an initial coffee chat. anyone know what to expect?
.
nah, sf life sciences
not heard back from IBD,rates and s&t ? Are hirevues for all ofthem out already ?
Have any non targets received HireVue for IBD?
I completed one for GCM (from nontarget) - does that mean I will not receive one for IBD?
Has anyone heard back for GCM superday? Got hirevue on 28/29 as well.
Are more Bofa hirevues coming? Or if I haven't heard from them yet am I done? I'm not doing IB, I applied for rates and currencies, Sales and trading and gcm
Has anyone heard from RE Structured Finance?
No. But I also applied to this so I am making a new thread. Since the timelines are different.
anyone know if there will be another wave sent out for IBD
SD Format for IBD NY is 2 25 mins interviews.... is it normal to be this short ?
Bofa CHI is done sad
Did you have SD yesterday 4/12?
no, just an analyst told be they finished their recruiting last week
Is anyone in the SF IB process?
Did they send out hirevues yet?
Don’t think so, they’re doing coffee chats rn
I heard first rounds and hirevues are being sent out this week as well
Can I pm you?
i just did a hirevue for IB. does that mean im not eligble for GCM? because i didnt hear back from them. Are hirevues still rolling for GCM?
When did you receive the Hirevue and are you a target or non target?
Received the hirevue 2 days ago, target
Did anyone hear back after SD on 4/13?
Is this for diversity? NY office?
non diversity nyc
Did anyone receive hirevue for SF?
can anyone share insight on how superday went?
Anyone knows when the 2nd wave of hirevue goes out ?
Second wave Hirevues were released this week. hopefully u get 3rd wave.
Had a director send my resume to HR, haven’t received a hirevue. Done for me?
Is it true that the second wave hirevues has alr been out?
Are all hirevues out
