Hey, I'm from Canada but want to recruit for Mizuho (and I know Mizuho sponsors) — is it possible to get in the process if I network with bankers? Or does Mizuho stick with its group of target schools

 

i go to a target for mizuho, the application was posted on the school handshake page. if you go to non-target, maybe reach out to hr/network?

 

Just had in-person interview. Looked more like a superday. 2 rounds with 2 interviewers at each. One focused on technicals and the other on macroeconomic drivers with a mix of behavioral. 

Techs were harsh, but when I was in doubt, I was very transparent with interviewers. They seemed to like this. Killed the market drivers and behavioral though. 

No idea when I'm hearing back. 

 

Not sure, but if it helps I was told they give out some offers right after first round and have a superday for candidates they're still deciding between

Is this for their core schools?
