SA positions

I've hammered out some applications over thanksgiving and was wondering if people could give me a few other places to apply to, I've applied to:

Piper Jaffray - Done Deutsche Bank - Done UBS - Done Citi - Done Jefferies - Done Blackstone - Done Blackrock - Done Centerview - Done Goldman Sachs - DONE Morgan Stanley - DONE Barcap - DONE Nomura - DONE

And I've still got to apply to:

RBC - No idea what's with their recruiting page BOA - No positions on the career finder Wells Fargo - Still no positions Lazard - Gonna mail in a app Evercore -as above PW Partners - as above JP Morgan - Opens december 15th

Are there any I'm missing?

ya, that makes now incrediably early. I talked to a contact that said if u r submittimg cold online early or late u better have a damn impressive resume (moreso than usual). Info from large mm ny-> 10-20 vault fwiw

 

I don't think there is any real negative to applying early, and if you are applying through the regular channels and not through a contact you are going to have to have a damn impressive resume no matter what. Get your applications in, hope for the best and then prep like hell for your interviews. Your resume really won't matter once you get through the initial screen, its all about how you do in the interview.

 

Is it just me? I have trouble submitting my application via CS site... After "processing" flickered for a while, I got logged out and had to start over.

No the CS site sucks beyond belief.

 

this isnt really that early. i remember my target had a drop date of sometime in mid-december for on-campus.

centerview definitely does sa's, or at least has in the past. rbc didnt do them last year for nyc ibd though (they only have nyc s&t sa's for some stupid reason, probably because they are canadian).

i'm not sure if qatalyst does sa's but its worth a shot cold-calling the head of hr there.

try some solid mm's that are missing from your list if you're into the whole mm thing: harris williams, lazard mm, william blair, etc. might be worth a look.

 

Wow, you're applying to almost 20 firms, how did you find the time for that?

Anyways, BoA doesn't start till a bit later, and if you're at a target its better to just go to the info sessions and apply through your school.

Also why are you listed as a 2nd year associate banker.

I can't afford to not get in anywhere, I go to a state school so I'm not holding my breath here, I figure the more I apply to the better shot I have.

No idea, I will change that right now, I must have selected it when I first joined just to get through registration quickly.

 

I believe there was an "elite" boutique list thread a while ago. You might want to check that one out and apply to all of those.

 

haha, perhaps i should rephrase. they have taken interns before. i have a friend who had an "internship" there under a family contact who was high up. full class, no, but interning has been done. its not like a full sa class would be more than 3 or 4 anyway at a place that small, so dont get your hopes up if you're not at a target or crazy connected.

 

solid list. anyone know of places with deadlines before january? time crunch happening with finals and won't have time to pull the trigger on apps til xmas break. thanks
