Based on the most helpful WSO content, full-time recruiting timelines often align with return offer periods and subsequent openings for external candidates. For example, in previous years, return offers were typically handed out in August, and other firms began posting FT applications shortly after. Interviews for full-time roles at some firms, like elite boutiques (EBs), often start in early to mid-August, while bulge brackets (BBs) may begin in late August to early September.

If Apollo's process opened early, they might still wait until after the summer to evaluate candidates, especially if they are aligning with the broader industry timeline. Keep an eye on updates and be prepared for potential interviews starting late summer or early fall. Networking and staying in touch with recruiters can also provide clarity on their specific timeline.
