On the sophomore side, only BAML and MS are really on the back end of their recruiting cycle. Goldman will not start until mid-September and a few more programs follow after that like Citi, CS and Deutsche.
Only late right now for the larger BB programs.
Oh ok thanks so much for this response. So Goldman, Citi, CS, and Deutsche haven't even opened apps yet? Do they take sophs?
Also, what about "lower-tier" banks (RBC, BMO, HSBC) - have they finished already?
Thanks sm!
Goldman application opened a month ago man. The other three are diversity programs that open in the fall and take sophomore interns. GS, BAML, and MS are the bigger programs that will accept non-diversity.
Can't speak to anything outside of BBs man, I have no clue.
