I screwed up and missed the summer analyst application openings for a lot of the bulge brackets and middle market banks. Even though the applications are technically still open I'm assuming most of the banks are already far into their process and won't consider new applicants. Is it even worth it to apply and try to network at those banks? Does anyone know of any middle market banks that haven't kicked off their processes yet?

You should think about if this is something you really want to do. The recruiting process is tough and it takes a lot of work, and you're going to be competing against people who are very on top of it. It depends on how much time/effort you're willing to put into this
That's a fair point. I'm confident this is what I want to do, I just dropped the ball a bit. Thanks for the note though, it's definitely something to keep in mind.
Boutiques tend to be later in the cycle, why not chance your arm at a boutique and build from there (better than dropping into consultancy ;))
As all motivators say.... its never too late :-D
The second best time is now
Nope, definitely still possible. Though you definitely missed a large chunk of recruiting, you didn't miss it all. I recruited around the same time last year and had multiple superdays lined up in September/October. Some banks don't like what they see in the superdays and will sometimes have to rerecruit late, but don't count on it.
Thanks man, good to hear you did this as well. Sounds like I just gotta hustle a bit more now.
Anyone know which BB's are going to have another wave of recruiting in the fall?
