London current IB recruitment

Hello everyone,

Just curious to hear everyone's thought on the current situation for incoming grad recruitment in London (especially for top 5 BBs).

I know that these banks have been freezing recruitment for the past few months but I was wondering whether anyone had intel on when it could pick up again?

Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot for this, but don't you think that some banks will still recruit as some ANA2 / ASO1 will jump ship? Surely they'll need fresh blood no?
