London SA 2021 Spreadsheet
G'Day fellow monkeys,
I made a simple spreadsheet containing information about Summer Analyst 2021 positions in London. Feel free to add additional information related to Associate, Off-Cycle, and Sprint Insight internships; change the setup; edit information; and add additional companies to the list. Just try to keep it accessible and useful for everybody.
Let me know if something is not working and good luck with the recruiting!

Remark: I uploaded the file again and now, if everything is correct, I am the only one that can edit the file. Just drop changes in the comments and I will keep updating the file.
The file can't be shared with people that request access through their Big Four email adress.
RBC open
Does Greenhill open on Aug-24 and close the same day? lel

Edited

Is Evercore London open I can't see anything on their website?
Evercore London opens 7 September. The hyperlink in the spreadsheet brings you to this site: https://www.evercorecareersemea.com/
Is this only for PCA? The spreadsheet isn't very clear on EVR, people saying they're in 3rd rounds and then others saying it's only for the PCA group
Only FT is open so far.
Anyone know when BMO CM FT opens?
As I'm sure many are studying for technical interviews, you can have your Alexa or Google Home quiz you. I recently added some free IB accounting and valuation quizzes that you can use and add to at Grillme https://grillme.dev/. Video of it:

Unfortunately, half of the excel file is blank and I can only see the "CV" and "CL" part without knowing the banks being referred to.
Could you please upload the file again?
Not sure why Google Sheets is hiding some stuff but when you download the file, it should be ok
MS has no Hirevue for IBD London
Are you sure? MS has hirevue for IBD Americas
Are you sure? MS has hirevue for IBD Americas
Yeah, MS LDN doesn't have hirevue. It's tests -> 2 calls -> AC (Superday)
Am I the only one who cannot find the link to apply to J.P. Morgan SA IB in London????
[Edit: sorry I just found it lol, good luck everyone!]
I still can't find it could you comment the link?

Anyone know when BMO CM opens?
Do you guys know if boutiques like Moelis, Greenhill, Lazard etc. have online assessments (numerical, verbal) and Hirevue? Or do they just jump ahead to phone interviews?
Rothschild has a numerical test, not sure about the rest though. I'd presume no for Moelis and Greenhill though. No idea about Lazard
Moelis has verbal and numerical.
Greenhill has no tests afaik.
Thanks So much for sharing, much appreciated!
Great post
thanks
Anyone hear anything on BMO CM, when it is opening? Thanks
Is BofA open? it say it is on the website however when I go to apply it says that it is currently closed - Am I too late already or is it just not open yet?
opens in a few mins..... (Aug 31st)
BofA open
PWP + Nomura open
I couldn't find the positions for Nomura. I used this link: https://nomuracampus.tal.net/vx/lang-en-GB/mobile-0/appcentre-ext/brand…
i google searched "nomura internships 2021" and selected the magnet.me links
https://magnet.me/en-GB/opportunity/199512/2021---investment-banking---sector-teams---summer-internship---london?utm_campaign=google_jobs_apply&utm_source=google_jobs_apply&utm_medium=organic
damn PWP going HAM. 5 different questions on application form! Are people actually writing the 250 max for each one?
What kind of questions?
1 - As an intern, what would you like to achieve in your 10 weeks at PWP? (250 words)
2 - In the story of your life so far, what would be the title of your autobiography? (250 words)
3 - What strategic alternatives might a company have if they do not engage in M&A? (250 words)
4 - What do you think has been the most strategically successful M&A deal you’ve seen in the last few years and why? (250 words)
5 - What is one question you would like to ask Dietrich Becker, if you had the opportunity? (250 words)
Anyone got any ideas for Q2? Maybe I could compare my life to a movie title or something idk
it's really weird. Not sure how to answer without being super cringe.
Draw the comparison between your life and the movie Django Unchained. Compare fighting your way into IB to Django’s fight out of slavery - this will go down well for sure.
Seriously though this is a retarded question. Wouldn’t worry about it too much - these questions are more about rejecting candidates who write bad answers, rather than rewarding good ones.
Should be at least 200+ for each one. HR can see the word count and a quick way to dinge candidates is to reject the ones who didn’t bother writing out the questions.
Are titles of biographies ordinarily 200+ words long? How about questions you ask people ordinarily?
I agree about at least 200 for the other three...
Citi and Morgan are open!
can you find the Nomura application?
Not on its site
ubs and Macquarie open
Edited!
Is DB open? Heard from someone that it opened yesterday but could not find the link.
BNP open https://group.bnpparibas/en/careers/job-offer/london-summer-internship-…
Edited
This may sound stupid but is it too late to apply? I mean most opened on 31st August and yet I think most applications just go in the first couple of hours?
I hope this isn't serious...
I might be wrong but I do not think HR is that eager to evaluate each application.
You do know most -- even competitive candidates with good resumes -- apply in late Sept. or early October right? Maybe 1% of the total applications come on the first day.
Unless you're a non-target desperately trying to show their ultra-super-keenness to apply, it will make no difference whatsoever whether you apply now, or in a week, or two weeks. It will make a difference if you apply now/ in a week vs applying on the week before deadlines shut, sure -- but its a ridiculous question to ask whether it's "too late" to send off an application two days after they've opened....
As a matter of fact, HR prefers those applicants that apply in late September/early October. Late applicants are more confident about their chances and don't have to prove their worth by frantically submitting applications the moment they open.
Hey guys, on the Citi app I can see EMEA competency questions but no covering letter. Also, it only seems to require the CV at the point of starting the application (i.e. to upload) but does not show it thereafter.... is anyone else noticing the same thing?
Thanks! :)
yes, i only answered the three questions. CL is not needed as it is not stated but i believe you do have the option to submit on the portal
Tbh, I also did not see the option to submit it either weirdly. Just an option to upload transcripts :/
HL and Rothschild are open
Can you send the link for HL?
https://chu.tbe.taleo.net/chu03/ats/careers/v2/searchResults?org=HLHZ&c…
Can anyone find EMEA UBS Investment Bank Application for London? Can only see spring week open
Has anyone done the Hirevue for Bank of America? What to expect?
Bump
Five questions. Most are the usual tell me about a time you had to _______ (multitask, work in a team, etc.) One technical question. 3 minutes for each question and 30 seconds to think.
is this for baml? I thought its behavioral only..
Anyone heard from JPM? They are not sending hireviews to IB applicants.
Anyone got it or knows anything?
Still waiting for my Pymetrics invite, it's been a week already...
Tad hypocritical, no? Just above you were saying HR prefer applicants who apply in late September/ early October due to their apparent confidence and here you are saying it's been a week since you hit apply on your JPM app.
Lacking confidence are we?
Because of a death in the family, I haven't been able to jump on these applications as quickly as I would have liked but as long as I am getting everything in within 10 to 14 days of the opening date I feel I should make the cut. Maybe if you are non-target, don't have any spring weeks or solid finance internships you are in a different boat and you have to apply within three seconds of the application opening but as I say I feel should make the cut. I certainly wouldn't intentionally delay an application to impress HR with my confidence but I am not rushing my applications either, I take time to read the questions and research very solid (and hopefully impressive) answers. I spent 3 days on my PWP answers and crushed it, consequently, I had a first-round interview yesterday and will hear in a week or two if I am through to the next round.
I have no idea if applying reasonably early and producing well crafted/well researched answers/covers is going to be more effective than applying straight away and copying and pasting generic shit into the application box but my approach has delivered Spring Weeks and finance internships previously so I am sticking with it.
Is bank of america closed alreay?
Stop ask if BoA is already closed or not, if you cannot find their link in the portal then you shouldn't be able to apply for SA.
Anyone done UBS tests and not heard back?
I did them last year and got an invite to hirevue like 5 mins after? I thought they would let you know even if you failed straight away?
Did the tests and they sent me the video interview link the day after. Be patient :)
yeah just got the invite today lool.
Hsbc open (for the spreadsheet)
Edited
Any news on when BMO CM opens for London?
Interested in this as well. Bump.
Just wondering why the process is so delayed compared to the US.
Has it always been like this?
Hi Guys, my name is Bisola, a former Warwick student, and now also ex-J.P Morgan (Equity Research) & EY (Advisory Consultant).
Last year, I built a spreadsheet tool that gathered a complete list of top companies that do 1st and 2nd year internships and 3rd year grad programmes with useful info such as: which company is open and closed as well as the application deadline.
Because so many students found it useful, we decided to do it again this year. You can check out the tool here:
https://www.sheetswebapp.io/
If any of you have any questions generally about securing internships or grad programmes, you can shoot me a message from there and I'll respond.
Has anyone heard from Citi? I have not received the tests even :/
Same.
Interesting. Applied 1 week ago I think.
LAZ SA 2021 and FT 2021 both appear to have been filled for LDN.
“Our 2021 Summer Internship programme has been successfully filled through early talent programmes. Should places become available, information will be displayed on our website. If you are interested in this programme, we would encourage you to create a profile to receive alerts for any relevant opportunities.”
Interesting, do you think it is true or are they downsizing the SA group because of COVID?
It is both true and the result of a downsizing due to covid
No clue about downsizing. All I know is that for spring weeks/spring week converts may very well be the vast bulk of summer 2021 recruits for some boutiques/MM/EBs.
Connected with someone at an MM last week (day after the SA apps opened for that MM) and they asked me to apply ASAP saying they had already interviewed a few people. I asked them how it was possible lol, they said all of them had been fast tracked from Spring Weeks....
The reason the LAZ thing is a little scary/annoying is that now I think of it DB, CS and BARC have not even opened.
Each of them have a spring week programme (I think) and I would not be surprised at all if they are doing the fast track interviews first.
Similarly, heard someone say Rothschild were doing spring fast tracks. If these things are true, in theory the SA 2021 at these places (and maybe some others) can look very UK [this is not a jibe - literally just basing it on what little I have seen so far, please correct me if I am wrong].
I would focus on applying to BBs. It's the EBs / MMs that will usually fill most or all of their SA class through spring weeks.
I know of two other BB's that are doing fast tracks for Spring Week Alumni. What do you mean when you say SA 2021 starting to look very UK? Do you mean that there will be less opportunities outside London or that the SA 2021 cohort will be demographically skewed towards British students(there was a good mix of British and non British on my spring weeks btw).
I meant the latter because from what little I had seen there were more people from the UK on spring weeks than on summer internships.
Can I ask which two BBs are doing this acceleration?
Submitted my application for JPM earlier today and got rejected after an hour - I did put graduation date to Jan 21 - Jun 21. Are they really that strict about the penultimate year thing?
Same!!!! I guess they are. I guess it's FT that's left.
Sounds like an auto ding rather than review ding
Has to be, my profile was very competitive as well. So annoying tho. FT openings will be rare this year...
Anyone knows if JPM fixed the hireview and pymetrics for its IB programmes?
I’ve recently started a newsletter to interview one junior banker each week, to share their story on how they broke into investment banking, smashed their internship etc.
My reason for starting this newsletter is that I got a lot of help when I was getting started in banking and want to be able to pass this on. I was an M&A analyst at Evercore in London, and also did my summer internship at Evercore. Prior to that, I did spring weeks at Lazard, BAML and RBS.
I’m also planning to regular free CV reviews and post other content on how to smash the IB application and interview process.
Sign up at https://breakintobanking.co if interested!
For Centerview, is the only application process the submission of CV upon their website? Is there not a formal application process? I note that on the spreadsheet, the additional comments say "email"... Anyone able to provide some intel on this? Thanks
The open general application is what you are talking about.
Yeah, where can I apply?
Can anyone please post the link for BMO CM? Many thanks!
i don't think it's open yet. just wait man
anyone else just got the JPM IB email about them moving to a new system and having to reapply there?
same here, at least one BB not ghosting me (for now) <3
Has anyone heard back with interviews or assessment centres or rejections? Feel like being ghosted.
Neither, I don't think anyone has, it's still pretty early
1st rounds at a few places are out
Had one first round interview and got another first round coming this week, both small EB's without tests or hirevue who didn't run Spring weeks this summer. I think they are both moving fast to interview applicants who attended spring weeks with their competitors. Been rejected by UBS. Awaiting two accelerated assessment centres won off the back of spring weeks. To be honest I am really enjoying the application cycle it's like The Hunger Games for Hardos.
MC and PWP right?
Rejection by UBS post video interview? Also good luck with your ACs!
1st for PwP/Ghl? First is moving fast, second isn't.
Has anyone had interviews with EVR, MS, Citi or Rothschild yet? Excluding those who got fast tracked after spring weeks.
Haven't heard from any of them yet
Received invite for MS IBD SA today without having been on spring week.
Have you heard back after your phone interview with MS? Had mine but haven't heard back
Citi SA interviews are out.
IB or Markets?
The LSE on Paternoster square has its capital markets app open
Hi guys, in a typical year when are assessment centers in BBs and boutiques?
Evercore is open
Has anyone found a similar post on Consulting groups?
It would be super-helpful
Thank you, mates!
I couldn't, if you do, let me know
following
Does anybody know what asset managers are open besides schroders and M&G?
CS is open
how soon does MS send tests after application for IBD SA ldn?
Also can final years apply to the above programme?
They send it immediately if you pass the basic requirements. I believe final years are welcome to apply but you should check in their FAQs and job description
