Applied to Off-Cycle HSBC —> reached the Job Simulation
Applied to PWP Off-Cycle —> havent heard back since application

Yes, me. I did the Job Sim yesterday - weird experience.
Anything post job sim?
Nope you?
Worth noting that Evercore is also doing FT
Has BX opened FT? I can only see Summer internship on the website
Same, FT not open yet
Anyone know if/when rx apps will open?
Anyone know if/when rx apps will open?
A lot of these will never open much like last year
PWP wont do any FT this year
blackstone FT is not open yet
following
GS will not hire for IBD in London. JPM does not hire for OC in London. MS will open OC as usual but will not open FT. Citi will not open FT. UBS will not hire FT, they have 60 SA / OC from CS to fast track. PJT won't open FT. Greenhill will only open FT if people renege from SA conversion.
Very helpful, thank you. Seems like recruiting this year will be extremely competitive if 4 of the US BBs + UBS & CS are not recruiting. Basically leaves you with just a handful of reputable banks left. If you don't mind me asking, what's the source for this info?
BofA have opened OC today.
Has HSBC not opened any Asset Management roles?

Santander opened for FT yesterday.
Know smeone at the firm who said they're recruiting aggressively in IB roles
Well I hope tf that they give me an interview. I've applied EVERYWHERE and I'm not even getting any damn interviews.
relax bro, no interviews have come out yet (except for PWP first round)
Don't be disheartened. I'm on the other side seeing these applications now, and my god the quality is insane this year. Analysts at best BB's applying for this stuff.
Keep going forward, best of luck.

Has anyone heard back on their Morgan Stanley off-cycle 2024 application? Just saw a post that HV for SA 2024 is out.
I got the db assessments today can you let me know if video interviews are automatic and sent to everyone or dependent on passing the game?
I got a HV for MS sent out yesterday for SA
Which division?
Does anyone know what's happening with Rothschild's FT? They've had the job advert up for like a week now but that apps "aren't open, and an update will be provided shortly"?
They're closed for this year. No headcount. Source: Interns
Anyone have any idea for when the OC internships are? It is stated nowhere, but is it for Jan 2024, or already for May/June 2024?
Thanks for fast response! So if I would want to apply for May/June 2024 OCs, I would have to start applying in Jan 2024? Cause they don’t ask date of availability anywhere I believe.
Do you know if BX PE or TacOpps will have OC?
TacOps only recruit for Sept start and takes 1 intern. Application starts in March, did 4 rounds with them this year then ding
Thanks for this. Beyond HL do you know if any other OC's are opening soon?
Has anyone else just been auto rejected by Jpm?
Maybe it’s because I didn’t add a cover letter
Me too. Do you know why we were now??
Does anyone have an update on the Barclays banking graduate analyst role - after the assessment and VI?
I've seen some programmes close early though, so not sure what to make of it.
Not running late, completed AC yesterday
Do you know if the Rothschild process moved any further after the online assessment?
For the Jan PE long term intern role*
What is evergreen?
elaborate?
Any update on Blackrock, Brevan Howard and Capula?
Same, rej from PWP, what was your background?
Did you get a first round?
anyone not heard from PWP at all?
Anyone got info for PWP interview for the OC
Have you had any luck with any OC applications?
Yeah, I'm the same mate - tough market for London atm. Do you know why they leave it so late to begin interviews for OC Jan start? They seem to recruit alongside SA for Jan, despite the role starting 6 months earlier.
Most banks want to shift people out from London towards European offices ASAP. At GS, people who do their internship in London get FT offers for European offices if they speak the local language. Recruiting for London is very difficult because of the following reasons:
1) You are not just competing against people from the UK, but you are competing against a ton of European candidates (and tbh quite a few Asian candidates too)
2) It's a really bad year for IB so headcount is down significantly, especially for FT recruiting
3) All the major banks are aggressively decreasing headcount in London and growing their presence in Europe
The combination of these three factors makes recruiting for London very difficult so if you are wrapping up your studies and need to maximize your opportunities of getting FT, I would 100% target continental Europe over London.
are you a student or a graduate? i though bank of america is strict with grad year
Hi everyone, do you know if the required criteria are strict ? I graduated this summer and sometimes for FT they ask for a specific graduation date (in 2024 mainly)
Any update on the MS process?
And whether BX are looking to hire more than 1 intern for their OC process?
What OC are you asking about? Credit?
Yeah
Interviews are out for MS IBD Off-Cycle
do u think its too late to apply now?
.
FT or OC?
Will JPM Markets FT open aswell?
lmao
who can share the link of jpm ib FT, cant find on the website
did you receive the HV instantly?
Did anyone get autorejected from JPM? Also after tests do Barclays send HV straight away?
Pls do let me know
for 2 years now i get autorejected from jpm ffs
Wtf is going on? Why does it happen? Maybe it’s no cover letter?
