already a thread for this
MS 30%, Citi 75%, BofA 90%
I'm sorry is this IBD because that is genuinely fucking insane for MS what the fuck are they doing
Yep IBD. MS prefer off-cycles (~90% conversion) whereas neither Citi/BofA have taken off-cycles (think BofA opened off-cycles this year for the first time).
MS typically cull most/all the UK undergraduates and about half the European ones
that's so pathetic from MS honestly I see why they convert the OCs as they need them for longer than a 9 week intern that barely knows jack but that's honestly such scum behaviour from them
yeah the majority of the MS office is European, I can speak about that first hand, again I don't understand because for me it makes the interview so much harder vs other firms I've interviewed at because there's a stronger language barrier that the interviewer has to overcome vs when I interview with a UK undergraduate student who has picked up the language better
fuck MS though honestly it's actually the bank I've had a displeasure of interviewing with in terms of horror stories vs JPM GS etc
Expatiate on the horror stories

They ask the weirdest questions of all the IB firms I've had so far, super technical despite my background being the most non-finance one can get which other firms take into account
The call connection quality on their end is piss poor, last year i waited 7 weeks for a TI after my HV and I frankly thought they were mocking the situation, only recently did they fix their HR recruitment issues
The people there are always on edge, can't converse well, can't take humour well and a few other things. I think it's because they're behind GS and JPM and they work so hard they forget that it's just a job at the end of the day. My conversations with GS and JPM people I've networked with are so much easier.
Sounds like an Eton -> Durham/Edinburgh
If I'm a UK undergraduate with an offer, no DEI, should I keep recruiting and try for a place with a higher return rate for UK students?
Pretty sure bofa return rates are lower than prior years due to the new summer structure
Heard still about 80%. Can someone confirm
Yeah typically 95-100% in previous years — dropped to around 85-90% this year apparently.
