Hey y'all, hope that you are having a good week. I have a quick question. For those of you who have accepted IB SA offers, what did the process look like once you accepted the offer? Is there an onboarding process via computer? Get any merch sent to you? Can you walk me through the process?
Thanks in advance!
Also congrats to all the future Summer Analysts! We've all worked super hard :)

You automatically become a god and fellow students will worship you
Yes basically
Before the above occurs, you actually receive a Patagucci vest with your bank branded upon the breast. Once the vest is equipped, you become a god.
then, and only then, do you start getting emails asking about your background and experience
So many emails...
Things will remain largely quiet for a handful of months, then you will have to sort out group placement (assuming your offer is generalist) then they will run extensive background checks.
What do u mean 'extensive background checks' - sounds spooky
The moment the last stroke of my signature hit the offer letter, the heavens burst open and angels began to sing. My collars popped by themselves and my glasses turned into shades. Victoria Secret models appeared out of nowhere and escorted me everywhere I went. People started worshiping the ground I walked on.
I didn't realize it at the time, but I had instantly transformed into a demi-god.
Unfortunalely you only get the banker bag during your internship so you will not be able to flex during this year on your fellow pesants that weren't able to get an offer.
