Essentially, most banks have cut down on FT recruiting. As has been publicized, most banks have had dreadful summer offer rates, so spots for the fall are going to be significantly cut down. For those of you interviewing, I can only imagine that the competition is going to be tougher than ever.

Not to mention that I know of at least one bank that has had accelerated interviews, so open spots by the time formal full-time recruiting begins is going to be a shitshow

but columbia is not a priority for most banks.

Really? Is that just for I-Banking positions (as opposed to all parts of the bank)? I thought Columbia had an outstanding placement record on Wall STreet. They came in as the top Program in America for Finance recruiters, according to WSJ

Also, I looked at the finance career placement for Columbia, and they looked (at a glance) like the top school in terms of getting to Big Banks and fund. It looked like every big name out there was hiring Columbia B-SChool grads.
