2023 SA Recruiting Update

I will be a junior next semester and am looking to land a 2023 SA position at literally any investment bank. I started recruiting very late (May) and missed a lot of opportunities to land a position. MM is likely what I am looking for as most BBs and EBs seem to be done recruiting. I currently am working in public finance investment banking at a very small local firm, so I am open to staying in PubFin if necessary, but am leaning more towards regular IB.

I am writing this post in hopes of gaining some direction in the recruiting process for 2023 SA. I know most firms are done or nearly done, but there are a handful that haven’t started and there is still time for. I am trying to figure out which firms may still be recruiting or start a new recruiting process in the fall so I know where to prioritize networking.

Does anyone know firms that recruit later in the summer or in the fall? This list below is what I have heard mostly. Feel free to correct this or make additions. Any help is appreciated.

Haven’t started:

DB, RJ, HW, Wells, FT Partners, Stephens, Citizens Bank, Wedbush, JMP

Still going or have another round in fall:

Stifel, Cowen, Nomura, Truist, KeyBank, TD, Suntrust, DA Davidson, BMO, Oppenheimer, Societe Generale
