Get ready... 2021 SA is starting soon

Credit Suisse just listed an info session in September on my university's career portal for their summer 2021 internship opportunities. Seems like banks are going to continue to push recruiting ahead.

The same info sessions happened in early fall last year at my school, and I attended them just to get my name out there as a freshman and try to figure out networking. Now it actually counts.

But this doesn't mean they are pushing up the schedule even more - if anything, banks are backing up. An info session doesn't mean the start of recruiting, just banks looking for applicants if it's this early in the time frame. They'll come back 2nd semester as well if not later in the fall.

 

If this 2021 SA is starting this early, might as well write up my resume while I am still in the my mother's womb and sent out the resume after they cut the umbilical cord. What's next, hiring 9th graders as analysts?

You guys are overreacting imo

Info sessions != recruiting.

Citi, Guggenheim, and CS came to my school in September 2018 for SA2020 info sessions, but didn't hold 1st rounds or superdays until Spring 2019. Seems like they're just sticking to the accelerated timeline that has become the norm over the past 1-1.5 years-- it sucks but doesn't really seem like it's been accelerated more
