Getting the offer

How does the offer process work? Is there a day at the end of the internship dedicated to wrapping things up with HR where they extend an offer? Will your supervisor talk to you about it before the summer ends? Or do they contact you in the fall with all the info?

If you have an internship this summer, you are in good shape. Most of these banks do not want to have to recruit much, if at all on campus this year, or at least as little as they have to in order to keep a relationship with their target schools. Because of that, I think you'll see a higher % of kids get extended (and more kids accept, given market conditions).

Usually they'll bring you in the last day/week and give you a mini performance review, then let you know if you're being given an offer to return or not. That said, I wouldn't be shocked if they wait as long as they can after you leave to extend an offer, to buy them more time to see how much capacity they need.
