HELP NEEDED FT27

Is FT recruiting basically over at this point?

Starting to get pretty worried because it feels like a bunch of processes all started at once over the last week or two and I can’t tell if we’re already at the end of the cycle or if there’s still a decent amount left.

For 2027 FT IB, what banks/groups have actually started first rounds already? Which ones have had superdays / given offers? And are there still groups that haven’t started at all yet?

Also does anyone know if there’s usually another wave after this? Like once return offer decisions are finalized and groups get a better idea of headcount, do more FT spots usually open up in late August / September? Or is that mostly cope and the bulk of recruiting is happening right now?

I’ve heard mixed things where some people say FT recruiting goes well into Septfember, but then it also seems like certain groups are moving insanely fast right now and filling spots within days.

Basically trying to figure out how panicked I should be if I don’t have a ton of active processes by the end of this week. Would really appreciate any datapoints on banks/groups that are currently interviewing, already finished, or haven’t started yet. Especially NYC/SF/LA.
