im fucked
didn't get a return offer this summer cuz my bank made a lot of cuts (not performance related). been grinding with FT recruiting for the past 2 weeks since then but haven't had much luck. Feels like everywhere I look is either not hiring or they have like 1 spot that I have to compete for against 500 kids who have been prepping for the past year. Never planned on re-recruiting so didn't network during my internship and let my technicals slip and now with most processes already in full swing I feel like im so far behind and fighting a losing battle. I know there's gotta be others in the same spot as me but haven't really seen much here about it.
So fellow interns with no return offers, how we feeling? have you been getting interviews? has anyone heard of any banks that are recruiting later in the fall? could really use some solidarity rn
I .
Recruiting for the following summer is already done.
My buddy didn’t get an offer, she has interviews in pipeline or know that there are FT spots for PWP, Evercore, HL, Piper Sandler, Barclays. Some middle market banks have FT spots too.
Haven't seen any postings for Piper or Barclays, were these just thru her network?
Barclays through her school network, not sure about piper to be honest.
Feel you brother in the same position. Surprised there's not more posts of this. Non target non diversity and got cut at BB SA mainly due to the group not being able to bring in much revenue. I have gotten interviews from mostly cold applying. Prolly have gotten 4 banking interviews so far as well as a couple in corp dev. Did 2 superdays this week one at an EB and another at a different boutique. Happy to chat in PM if you want as we grind through this. Def sucks but in this market I'm willing to take anything I get. I refuse to be an unemployed loser
I’m curious - where have you interviewed / where are you interviewing?
pm me
Interested. Could you PM me since you are anonymous?
interested - could you also pm me thanks!
Me too pls!
If things pick up post Labor Day then could see an abnormal recruiting cycle.
Lower bonuses than expected leading to exits (seats opening) and market improvement could give more hiring.
Hey man, was in a similar situation, locked in my CB internship at a foreign bank December of last year, with a return offer for 2023.
IB is definitely few and far between, worth networking for a position or two you think may be doable (needs to be posted within the last few days).
S&T, ER, and CB positions in MM/foreign banks may still be recruiting. Off-cycle recruiting is an opportunity as well. It’s hell right now but if you keep grinding something that’s worth your time will pop up.
At this point focus on quality of application (including multiple networking contacts, your resume’s applicability to the role, any firms your school may have a pipeline to).
Realizing my response isn’t directly available. Sorry about that. My advice would be the same.
Lazard LA is hiring FT if that office appeals to you.
Where do you see these apps?
At this point - I will work any location as long as the name is reputable. Do you have more information that you could PM me with?
Jefferies has a few openings in their non-NYC offices
Saw a few postings for their charlotte office, u know if they’re still recruiting or wrapped up?
I'm not in any of those groups. But if the post is still up I'm assuming they're still open
