Harris Williams bootcamp
Does anyone have info on the HW bootcamp, specifically on what percentage of participants get return offers and what a participant can expect during the two weeks.

The program is 2 weeks in Richmond, VA. There are about 20-30 participants from my knowledge. It is two weeks, they put you In a hotel, pay for your food, and have training/networking events. I believe the first week is training and the second is a shadowing program. it takes place two weeks before traditional 10 week programs begin and is designed to feed interns into full time. A buddy of mine who did the program told me that it is pretty solid and that basically everyone gets an offer (it’s similar to the big 4 leadership program where you have to really fuck up to not get an offer). His exact words were 96% offer rate. he did say that you won’t get Into the program if you have another Internship even though it’s designed to be before internships - it’s really designed to feed into FT. he mentioned that if you get a full time it is in Richmond though and it’s hard to lateral to Boston or SF
I agree somewhat, but the two Analysts that I spoke with both had other IB internships their Junior summer and still got into the M&A bootcamp program. They said it was great bc they went into their Summer Analyst internship knowing they had an offer from HW.
As far as the work itself, I’ve heard there’s some training and then you get paired with an Analyst and an Associate to essentially work through an old deal. You put together a slide deck and build models and present to senior bankers. The Analyst and Associate are there to help you throughout the project.
Heard the hotel is nice as well. Free food for the two weeks and there’s a decent stipend.
Bonus range numbers I have heard are $50-$75K + $20k sign-on bonus and $85K base for Richmond. They pay generally above street.
