I think so.
Applications opening in March superdays starting in spring and throughout summer
That is way earlier than last year.
I was told things would kick off summer/fall, but this was in January so it could have changed.
Anyone hear back from the diversity IB superday today yet? Please update if you do.
did you receive an invite for IB superday? or did you already have the superday? Also, which group? Latam?
There was a superday this morning. Generalist.
Wasn’t this delayed as the virtual symposium was delayed as well?
My ‘superday’ was over the phone and this morning. I went to an actual event at their office a few weeks ago before everything was switched virtual though.
Ah so you were part of a different jefferies diversity initiative?
Congrats for the superday. I have a few questions: How many different calls during the superday? Mostly Technicals or behaviorals? and how would you rate the Difficulty?
Did Jefferies release offers?
Yes, they are moving fast and trying to pick up talent to compete.
I can't even find the Jefferies 2021 IB application. Can someone PM me a link?
.
Are they even recruiting rn? There's literally no link whatsoever
Can't seem to find a link anywhere, have a feeling Jefferies is only recruiting diversity rn and doing non-diversity after COVID subsides
.
No link is up, assuming you're diversity or really high target or just know the MD
Jefferies is doing non-target in the summer-fall. not sure about targets
can you confirm this? Or do you suppose
confirmed.
I can also confirm this.
Have friends interviewed this week. They attended the diversity event though.
-
How do you know they're targeting late summer/early fall?
My buddy works there - late summer/early fall is directly from their HR, he made it seem like it's flexible given the circumstances tho
source on half the offers being diversity? what would be the purpose of that
Likely true. A lot of banks are ramping up diversity hiring to 50% of intern class. As for the purpose? Getting rid of the white male stereotype of IB/ finance in general and giving underrepresented groups opportunities.
Yeah i've seen a lot of push to make analyst classes half female half male which probably explains the 50%
Equality of outcome is not the same as equality of opportunity
Interned at JEF last summer and converted to a FT. The firm is definitely making a push to bump up the number of women in the intern class with the jWIN initiative, however I wouldn't worry about it too much if I were you since it's out of your control. My best advice is to reach out to anyone on linkedin who is an incoming analyst there and make the best impression possible. JEF's analysts are incredibly friendly and will definitely help you out, but you're more likely to get attention from incoming analysts who have free time on their hands. Hope this helps!
I got into the diversity event, which was supposed to be scheduled for March 20, but it ended up getting canceled with Jefferies promising accelerated interviews, but I haven’t heard back. Does anyone know what is happening with regards to this?
Hey, I recently emailed HR regarding this program, I also got accepted and got that email. They essentially told me to wait; they told me that they have made no changes to the recruiting pipeline and that they are currently in the process of rescheduling the symposium.
can confirm that they have opened the application to penn students via handshake (non-diversity)
Apps opened last week. Was wondering if anybody knew when they'd be doing 1st rounds. Thanks
Bump
Talked to multiple people at the firm and they all said late summer/fall timeline
Recruiter told me early summer/late spring. Anyone have any other info?
I heard it was late summer/early fall. I go non-target though so could be different
Would assume 1st rounds given out rolling then based on last yr?
Has anyone received an interview following the diversity event? I'm still waiting.
Nope. Still waiting as well.
.
Had my first round mid April, super day later in the week and got an offer. From a regional target school
.
Heard from an Associate in the group they've had to pause recruiting
Any updates for non-diversity NY recruiting?
bump
Got invited to a first round interview today. This is for SF.
Was this after Next Gen Diversity Symposium?
are you diversity? And did you network with the firm or just get through online application?
Got a first round too coming up, non-diversity, networked and also applied online
Anyone else can confirm if Jeff already started 1st rounds? spoke with contacts and they said its much later on..
Non target/non diversity will be in the late summer/early fall same as last year. Confirmed from analysts and incoming SA
I’ve already had my 2nd round for 2021 San Fran Tech group, maybe NYC is later but the Tech group started 2 weeks ago.
NY will be August at earliest
do u work at JEF?
do you have any idea what return offer rates are going to look like at JEF this year with virtual?
Haven't heard much. My guess is similar to any other year (95%).
Surprisingly got a first round, non diversity non target, did not apply online but networked. Anyone has any idea why this happen lol? Is that because of my network?
SF?
yup u too?
Seems pretty clear it is because of networking
Anyone done any first rounds in SF? What's the process and when do you expect to hear back?
anyone hear back for an SF super day?
No, I’ve made it through 2nd round and got really positive feedback.
I know an associate that mentioned he hadn’t heard anything yet regarding super day. I think they are currently trying to figure out if it will be in office or a virtual.
Hope this is helpful.
Hey man! How did you get your feedback? Did you ask the associate/analyst who did your 2nd round afterwards? And also just curious when the associate notified you when he said he hasn't heard anything about the superday. This timeline is so hard to gauge
Anyone know when apps close?
are offers already out?
I’m currently interviewing for Jefferies SA 2021 and just finished my 2nd round for the Tech group out of San Fran.
After speaking with one of the associates it looks like the super day will be getting moved to virtual and coming up next week.
How did the 2nd round go and how were the technical questions? Are you from a target or non-target?
Non target, non diversity. Quite a few technicals in the 2nd half of the calls. Had an analyst throw some pretty unconventional questions my way.
Anybody get super day offers yet? for SF
I don’t think super day has been established yet. Might be as late as mid July/ August
Oh really? I remember an analyst mentioned they are trying to wrap it up mid June. I'd honestly be really surprised if it's pushed to mid August but I guess these guys are busy since they're a lean shop. But yeah fingers crossed on the superday
Got a superday offer for NYC on 6/9 (vitrual).
how long was it between your last round and them notifying you for superday?
Are you diversity?
IBD?
No first round interview for me
applied a month or so ago
Were you diversity?
You're saying you applied and directly got invited to a superday? No phone screen/ first round??
same, got superday as first interview, no round 1/phone screen.
yep
Are SF offers out? Anyone have any idea?
Spoke with recruiting team out of NYC and they said the process won't start until July at the earliest idk what these people are gassing lol
i applied to ER specifically, not IB, perhaps their timelines are different then
same here ER has a different timeline
did u hear back from the superday
SF office (tech) is running earlier my guy
Diversity recruiting for NY hasn't even went underway. Not sure on timeline for non-diversity
Has anyone heard anything from SF regarding super days? Did they finish recruiting or just pause?
had my 2nd round 2 weeks ago and havent heard back
ya same
Damn has nobody heard back from SF?
Got a 1st round for FI S&T, non-target & non-diversity
When did you get this? And is it for NY?
Got it last night, for NYC
Anyone hear back after diversity event/any word from HR? My last conversation was middle of May and they said planning on doing interviews in “the coming weeks”.
I got the same answer from HR
BUMP ferda
Has anybody (or know of anybody) with a formal rejection from SF Tech?
Anyone know when interviews for IB begin??
when do u guys normally hear back after submitting applications?
Just heard ER 2021 is all filled up! Is this true? Does this the mean the whole 2021 process is wrapped up or are they still in the process for other teams (IBD, S&T).
FI S&T is working on first round, will be done on 7/2 cant speak to anything else though. If I had to guess IB and ER are much further along in the process.
when are superdays for fi s&t?
Do you know about equity S&T? Are they also done?
know about how many FI interns they take? Im assuming 3 or so
Process has barely started for IB
When will First Rounds kick off for Generalist Program?
Does Jefferies sponsor Canadians/internationals?
buuuuump
bump
bump
Does anyone know what the IB timeline looks like?
anyone know if we can apply to both NY and Charlotte IB programs?
Yea you can I did
Does anyone know when the NYC IB app officially close?
bump
Did anyone else receive an email saying that you've been referred? Does it mean they're kicking off the process? Anyone know of their timeline at all?
They haven’t even done interviews yet following the diversity event in April. Still waiting on that.
this for IB?
IB of course.
Any update on IBD timeline for NYC and other locations?
Had my first round on July 8th (all LevFin NYC guys). I know the program is generalist - I think it just worked out that way because they are all alumni of my school.
Anyone do S&T superday? how was it and did u hear back at all?
Is the equity S&T team done with recruiting?
I remember reading that Fixed income was done but haven't seen anything about equity?
Any update on Houston SA 2021 process? Timeline atleast?
bump
Any updates on SF?
Speaking to a VP says internal head count being revised for such progs
for IB? which city?
Any idea on what the updated head count is?
Does anyone know when the final interviews start to come out?
Did everyone who got referred get a referral notification. A VP told me he had flagged my resume to HR but never got an official notification.
Similar boat. VP told me he/she was submitting my resume to the recruiting team, didn't get an official notification for that. BUT I did get notifications before I spoke with the VP but after I spoke with some analysts. Hope this helps - seems like VP level flag is not reflected in the system
How do you know the notifications you got were due to referrals from analysts?
a day after I spoke with an analyst, I got the notification. I don't know for sure if it was the analyst, but he was the only one I spoke with so who else?
-
has anyone heard about the process for muni's group in NY?
Heard IB IS IN OCTOBER
Heard the same. Not sure if it's true or not
Who did you hear it from? All of my contacts seem to have no idea exactly
Where did u guys hear? My contacts have no idea either. In fact, one of them told me that what HR does with recruiting is a complete black box to bankers.
Spoke to recruiter in HR along with MD in mid july. Said that first rounds would be mid-late august with superdays in mid-late september.
Current Analyst just said that they'd be contacting people in a couple weeks. No set timeline by any means right now, and they'll be directly contacting people when they know the timeline is set in stone.
which location?
Only the Charlotte Office... I have not heard back from anyone in the NY office or any other locations for a couple weeks.
Did anyone else just receive an interview with the SF Tech group?
In terms of diversity timeline for NYC, HR emailed me today to ask if I am still interested to interview after attending their diversity event in April. I already accepted offer but thought I'd throw this in there since no one knows their exact timeline
I heard the same. Superdays projected to be around September 17th as well.
Is this for the NY office
Are first round offers out?
Bump
Has anyone heard back regarding equity S&T?
