It depends on what level you are talking about. For internship no, for full-time yes.

Okay first of all you need to know what you are talking about. Do you mean will they sponsor a Visa application, or a Visa transfer. If you dont have a work Visa you missed the window as it is a pretty competitive process. BUT with that said most large firms will sponsor a Visa. You really need to talk with someone at your school to understand your situation better, including the rules regarding an OPT. I cant speak about PE shops but at BB IB firms ideally you would be a summer analyst get an offer before the H1-B deadline so in theory you get 2 shots at getting an H-1B since if the first application is denied you can still use your OPT. It is really important that you know this stuff before it becomes relevant.
