recruiting directly in Europe probably not, but some banks allow you to move to Europe if an European wants to move in the US, so basically you just exchange places, US employee takes the place of the European and the European takes the US employee's place
clearly you'll need to stay on the seat for 1-2 years before asking for it
Thank you for the insight here - my question was more focused on direct recruiting into UK.
Not really. The visa is not a big problem post-Brexit like it would be in the US, but more importantly, you need to have some UK or at least EU links to land there. Either from there, have family there, or attending a British/European school. An American attending an American school with zero connection to London is not likely to stay long-term and it'll be difficult to convince anyone to hire you.
The better route is to work for a European bank in the US for 2-3 years and then ask them to transfer you to the home office.

is it the same for hong kong ? hk -> ldn ?
Very, very rare. Did see it with one person who had no personal ties to Europe, but this person was pushed by a group head who was a relatively unknown alum from our school.
Attending a UK university on a year abroad. Recruited in London because US recruiting was mainly over and I thought I was going back to my firm from last summer (I’m not). Received an offer for London and was told I most likely would be given a London position if offered FT return. Have yet to see, but it is possible given these circumstances. (on a tier 4 visa through the summer, but require work sponsorship should I come work FT)
