my bank has many job vacancies and I keep getting emails and messages on LinkedIn from kids asking for advice and/or if I know someone. I do share my experience but I am reluctant to reach out to anyone in my firm about people I don’t personally know. I say they’re welcome to use my name when applying though. I am curious to know how everyone approaches this and how do you help others?

What bank lol, ft got rescinded due to covid and am treading water
If you don't mind, BB or MM?
MM in tier two city (Think SF/Boston/LA)
so boston
No SF. Every city but NYC is tier two when it comes to finance
LOL SF/LA are both Tier 1. Dude is tripping.
Why do you cucks have to shit on people for something as small as city tier? Who cares if he thinks Boston is tier 1 regardless of whether or not it is. Shut up. Are you in charge of creating and enforcing arbitrary city tiers? Does it make you feel elite that you work in a “better” city than an anonymous professional on this website?
Please don't tell anyone I posted here as I'm not supposed to but I just want to help you because you said your FT offer got rescinded. GP Bullhound is looking for Analysts, Associates and VPs. You should try to get in touch with people there so you can potentially get an FT job again.
You're the troll everyone keeps talking about right
I email HR directly about any excellent candidates and refer any strong and / or highly motivated ones to another junior guy after our call. For anyone who doesn't impress, I tell them they can use my name when reaching out to others at my firm.
Or include my name when mentioning in their CL they spoke to people from the firm. Endorsing a candidate you think is shit will 1) give them a false sense of hope and 2) make you look like an ass unable to recognize talent.
What about a candidate would make them stand out to the point you’d be willing to refer them?
Good story for why IB -- not just because everyone else is doing it
Clear interest and rationale for my firm, firm type (EB vs. BB vs. MM), group, and location
Good cultural fit and tries to have conversation rather than Q&A session
Asks for referral and follows up with recruiting / application updates
Your endorsement can be a valuable boost for candidates who are deserving, because others in your firm put value on your opinion. But if you start to indiscriminately recommend people, your opinion would lose value and you'd later be unable to help someone who is deserving. So you need to protect it.
