Had a friend of mine still in school text me freaking out. RBC just posted applications for the summer of 2021. I thought we were getting over the hump of this nonsense...

They also posted around this time last year but didn't get the process rolling until around March (still one of the earlier firms however). This seems to be a continued push to get the "best" talent before other BBs as RBC seems really focused on continuing to climb through the BB ranks.
You do know that by the time an "application" is made public per formality, recruitment is essentially over right? Why didn't you prepare sooner? Summer 2021 is only 19 months away as of now, which is like a millisecond in the context of IB recruitment. Why didn't you start networking 30 months ahead and seek referrals 24 months ahead? Totally your fault.
In all seriousness, what I just said was all bullshit. Chill man, it's not a big deal, just a posting. I'm fairly positive that RBC is still trying to fill their 2020 SA/analyst classes lol
Lol. Ya, this is true, there were 2020 SA offers that went out as recently as ~1 week ago. Just a posting, take a deep breath.
What offices were offers sent out for
Funny they are still running 2020 FT process in the meantime
So if we apply through the portal will it mean anything?
this literally means nothing. I supered with them in late may for sa 2020. they don't kick off the process until late-march/april
Do you have to apply on the portal for your application to be considered or you can just network and hopefully get a referral?
I didn’t even apply until after I got a super lol. Non target
Calm down, BBs are still finishing up summer 2020. RBC is an excpetion as they try to catch some of the good talent and lock them down first before those candidates get offers from BBs. I wonder what the renege rate is.
Nothing to calm down about buddy. Some accounting firms already recruiting for Summer '22.
Accounting is a whole different process from IB/S&T etc and follows a pretty structured guideline, students at those target schools should be well aware from career advising. Many BBs haven't opened 2021 apps...
.
Damn
I heard some people already had their superdays and received offers. I know some who have not even heard back yet. Should those who haven’t heard back yet be worried?
