Did Barclays drop their investment banking applications?
Saw that Barclays dropped bunch of internships but can’t tell if any of them are investment banking? Also does Barclays do group specific applications or just based on location?
Barclays has not completely dropped their investment banking applications, but there have been changes in their internship offerings. Based on the most helpful WSO content:
Internship Availability: Barclays still offers investment banking internships, but the availability and structure can vary. For example, their Business Insight Assessment is a key part of the recruitment process for internships, which includes tasks reflecting real-world investment banking scenarios.
Group-Specific vs. Location-Based Applications: Barclays typically organizes applications based on location, rather than specific groups. However, during the recruitment process, candidates may be aligned with specific groups depending on their skills, interests, and the bank's needs.
Recent Changes: While there have been mentions of Barclays adjusting or dropping certain internships, there’s no indication that their core investment banking internships have been eliminated. It’s always a good idea to check their official careers page or reach out to their HR for the most accurate and updated information.
If you're applying, make sure to prepare for their Business Insight Assessment and leverage networking opportunities to understand group-specific dynamics better!
