What are my chances for HK SA / FT next year?

Hi everyone,

I’m currently completing my final year at a top-tier European school and have two internships under my belt:

  • IBD Internship at a large bank with a strong presence in HK
  • Non-FO internship at a large financial institution

I’m fluent in English and Mandarin, plus one major European language. Do you think it’s realistic to target IB full-time analyst roles or a IB Summer Analyst position in HK with my profile?

Any advice on how to position myself and maximize my odds would be hugely appreciated—especially from anyone. Happy to share more details in DMs if helpful.

Thanks in advance!
