Have you guys networked with anyone at SMBC?
I have only spoken to the recruiter.
Anyone hear back after phone screens?
when did you have your phone screen?
Three days ago
Had a phone screen on Tuesday. Next Tuesday scheduled a super day for ECM. For some reason all my interviewers are from IBD. Any advice on technicals for SMBC super day? it's a FA position.
I scheduled my super day as well but didn't get any details on a specific group. Did you get to choose?
I applied for IB group and for ECM, but mentioned that ECM is my priority. Not sure if they let you choose though
the same thing happened to me...have you heard back yet?
Haven't head back yet folks. What about y'all?
Same here. They have been v unresponsive
I have a friend at SMBC DCM -- he told me he heard back over two months after the interview. Although that's SMBC not Nikko
anyone have updates on the recruiting process for SMBC?I just had a phone screen for their real estate analyst program
