Hi,
I just got an offer from ML, and I'm wondering if anyone knows how many people (out of?) received full-time offers after their SA internships at ML (HK). I recall the HR lady telling us ML tries to recruit as many SA into full time as possible (at least for HK...)
Many thanks!

Did they call you, Cathy? I haven't heard from them and I guess I got dinged.
Cathy,
From what I've read, almost all of Merrill's full time new analyst hires are from their summer analyst program. So basically your chance of getting a full time offer at the end of summer =no.of full time new analyst hires/no.of summer analysts
I think that number might be something around 75%.
What time did you get your call? Or was it by email? Were you applying for HK SA IBD or some other division in HK?
thanks ra. I got a call from ML on Thursday. HK SA IBD.
haha damn. I think a lot people got call on Thursday then. I am gonna wait for sunday to get a call. If not, probably didnt get it
