Do you get blacklisted by a bank if you decline an offer there?

Not sure whether to accept an offer from a large bank. If I don’t accept the offer, would I be blacklisted from that bank when I apply in the future or would my chances of getting another offer there decline?

Thanks

Most likely no (if its not an extreme case), at least not from my experience. For context, I declined an internship offer from HL. Then a year later I interviewed for their FT opening. Got the offer but declined again

 

Nahhhhh, if you keep the relationship friendly with anyone you hit it off with during interviewing/networking process it could actually shortlist you for a future opportunity with the firm just because they'll know/remember you as a solid candidate. Depends on context though, some groups may just say fuck that kid.
