Hello there,
I have not seen a thread concerning spring weeks so I have decided to make this one. Has anyone heard back from any of the places they applied to? I have already been rejected for one (BNP Paribas) after taking Online Tests.

I think interviews start once all SA interviews are done
Thanks, I appreciate it. I was unaware of this.
May I ask what the content of the rejection email was?
Yes sure, it just said after completing the online tests my application would not be continued.
I also completed the test. However I didn't receive an answer afterwards.

Please do let me know if you have got onto the next stage or have heard anything for:
Also,
I am slightly confused with regards to what is going on with Goldman Sachs and their spring week programme. Has it closed or has something changed because it’s completely different from what it used to be I believe. If anyone has any insight with regards to what is going on please do let me and the thread know. Thanks.
GS made a new programme called Get Set for GS. I received an email saying their spring was cancelled.
It was done to save the bank money
Thanks for letting me know. I was really really confused with regards to what was going on but that makes sense now. 👍
damn GS in the mud
Have you heard from Rothschild?
I have not, I have seen people get first round interviews though so something is happening. I am not particularly confident but good luck to you and all the best.
I got an interview invite from Rothschild yesterday (only one I've heard back from so far apart from rejection from UBS)
Heard someone get a HV at Morgan Stanley for Sales and trading. The HVs aren't given to everyone.
Yeah it is out for S&T
It's sent out all or on a rolling basis?
Don't know but I think MS review apps by division not altogether
Has someone done Lazard's Video Assessment for their Spring Insight?
the apps arent even open yet..
They're open for SEO
Have you done it yet? What was it like?
How much technicals are people prepping for spring interviews?
Did anyone receive any interviews?
I had a Morgan Stanley Hirevue for Investment Management and a Lazard HV after completing both tests respectively. Apart from that I’ve not received any other ,sort of, 2nd stage interviews
Is that the Morgan Stanley ISG programme? or a separate program?
Do you mind me asking how the Lazard video interview went. What questions came up on yours? Thanks.
May i ask if you get Lazard's VI immediately after the SJT? or did u wait for a day or two?
Hsbc sent out a second assessment round with video interviews in the assessment
i did that already back in september
Same, the job simulation right? Did you get any reply from it? Because I've gotten no updates since taking their job simulation.
Tbh I think this is automatic and I don't even know if a human has reviewed my app yet. I did it back in september but I got the job sim invite exactly 1 day after test completion.
HSBC application status changed to under consideration
Has anyone done the Morgan Stanley Video Interview (equity research) ?
Lol just got that today as well (for ER)
Great, Have you done it yet?
Anyone's status for Citi changed to business review? I have no idea if it means anything, but alas.
Yes a lot of ppl I know have that as the status now.
Yes Mine
How many levels did you complete at BNP's test?
I got to Level 15 but then I only got 1 of the harder switches.
Is anyone else's blackstone application inactive? I have heard the same thing by many spring applicants
mine is still active, might mean u got rejected
Unfortunately that means you have been rejected. That is what happened to me.
Me too,
Why can't they send an email though!?
Apparently, Bank of America sent out rejection emails :(
Yes, I just got one
I haven't heard back yet
hey, I’m sorry to hear that. If you don't mind me asking, did they give you a reason?
They wrote Dear XX:
Thank you very much for interviewing for the Spring Insight Program 2023 - London.
Given the highly competitive nature of the recruiting process for this program, unfortunately we will not be proceeding with your application at this time. We encourage you to review our careers site for additional opportunities.
We sincerely appreciate your time and interest in Bank of America and we wish you the best in the future.
Kind regards,

Does anyone know at what stage CV's are screened e.g. for companies that do selective video interviews or tests?
Macquarie is screening this month.
Before they give out vid interview. Selective vid interview is effectively a first round
Anyone else get blackstone rejection
via email? or just inactive on the portal
Rejection email lol. I only applied on tuesday as well.
Mine still says active on portal, no rejection email.
following
Has anyone been rejected/emailed by GS or City in their Spring Insight Programme yet?
I think GS is non rolling , so will only start screening after deadline
I have heard of rejections for Citi but not Goldman Sachs.
I havent heard anything yet... anything new for you guys?
I've gotten the rejection from GS In mid December.
Any ideas, what a change from recruiter review to Business review in citi spring week application might mean?
I have just had that now. I am not entirely sure what that means. I just hope I get somewhere.
Means HR passed ur CV onto analysts to screen
anyone heard back from morgan stanley ibd?
I do not believe they have sent out HVs for IBD. They have only sent out HVs for Investment Management, Sales and Trading and Equity Research I believe.
Thanks, just received it right now actually
Got a rejection email for ms ibd
Anyone done Morgan Stanley Hirevue?
For which division?
IBD
My Evercore spring application has disappeared from my smartr account. Is it still there for anyone elses? Heard they gave someone a first round already so not hopeful.
Mine is still there, but I haven't heard anything yet.
Same situation but it was already viewed
they sent out vi this morning
Safe to assume we didn't get it if not this morning? Freshman so not sure how it works
Anyone else do the Roths final round? How did you find it?
it wasnt final round, there is an AC after
So there's 3? Why was it called final round then?
what was your timeline from 1st to final round?
following
Citi have sent out first rounds
Any idea, if I didn't receive it yet, so probably I'm out? As it is still saying business review.
I have the same, but Im not sure if it mean we are out or not
And has anyone heard back from jp morgan? As I've done the hirevue more than a month ago and still nothing yet.
Same here,
JPM will close 24th Nov so hopefully some activity rises after then
Still nothing on my end either.
Did BNP Paribas accept people already?
Apparently someone posted on LinkedIn as incoming Spring intern there...?
Yes I’ve just seen it
Yeah I saw that
Pain
Isn’t there another round after the online test
Has anyone heard back from Rothschild after the first round interview?
Yeah I had final round last week and they said would hear back with feedback within 2 weeks so will probs hand out offers + rejections to everyone early next week.
Offers have already been given out for the Women's Horizon programme, and I know of 1 person from my AC group that got the call for Global Advisory Spring this afternoon.
Anyone had a change of application status from under consideration to anything else for HSBC?
Ya checked mine today and it had changed, not sure what it means
Changed to what?
Hey,
Does anyone know if EU citizens need a visa (right to work in the UK) for London spring weeks?
Thanks!
Ofc not. It's not actually work, it's just an event.
