GS SA, non-classic and classic IB (London)

*(1) What is the attitude around incoming SAs reaching out ahead of group selection? (Which hasn’t even been announced). Edging towards leaving networking to programme start, may change my mind upon receiving any (in)formal information on group selection.

*Seeking advice from London since this isn’t even a question in Americas

(2) Possibilities for rotations across both non-classic and classic?

(3) Non-classic groups and those taking SAs? Very little public information relative to classic

(4) LevFin SA candidate selection and competitiveness?

(5) ECM SA candidate selection and competitiveness?

(6) Noticed many informal An/Aso openings on LinkedIn for the TMT group across offices in EMEA including London. Assuming there was previous overfiring. Opportunity for incoming SAs?
