PJT Partners, Evercore Summer 2019 Recruiting Timeline ??
I see on the websites of PJT / EVR and other similar firms that applications for most divisions (including M&A and RX) for US locations are already open.
This is quite surprising since only JPM is open so far of all the BB's.
Is this for accelerated recruiting, and are they evaluating on a rolling basis? Should I apply now? Does anyone now the timelines (Accelerated and Regular) for those EB's?

Here was my experience in September 2017 for RSSG (didn't get the offer):
8 spots for SA RSSG, 12 for M&A Usually 6 RSSG spots are taken by Harvard/Wharton kids
The RSSG superday had 5 interviews, 2 with associations, 2 with VPs, 1 with the Partner in charge of recruiting. The first 4 interviews were half technical, half behavioral. The interview with the Partner was all behavioral.
Technicals included: -LBO case - what is the IRR, what is the reasoning behind this purchase, how does this resemble a bond, mental math -bankruptcy case - what is each tranche of debt trading at at each time period when assets are x, what payment is the CFO worried about -details about the bankruptcy process -effects of different firm actions on common ratios (P/BV, P/E, EV/EBITDA)
