H1B Sponsorship at Barclays IBD - Current Policy and Group Variations?

I'm an international student recruiting for Summer 2026 analyst positions and have been networking with Barclays professionals. The culture resonates strongly with me based on these conversations. However, I've heard mixed information about H1B sponsorship in Barclays' Investment Banking Division. While some sources suggest they don't sponsor, I'm curious if this policy varies by group or if there have been recent changes.

Would appreciate insights from current/former Barclays IBD employees or anyone with recent recruiting experience, particularly regarding:

  • Current sponsorship policies across different groups
  • Any success stories of international analysts securing sponsorship
  • Recent changes to sponsorship practices
