2017 AM/PWM FT Recruiting
I know there is a 2017 FT recruiting thread for IB, but I wanted to create a dedicated thread for AM/PWM. I was wondering how the BBs usually recruit for full time analysts. Is it like IB in that there isn't a set timeline for recruiting, or will it be more like SA positions where they go to target schools and invite for superdays? For smaller shops, is it just about networking?
The firm I worked for did OCR interviews in late September to early October with two superdays in late October. For nontarget schools we did phone interviews first and those that passed were invited to the superday. I think the timeline is generally the same for BBs and other large investment managers that recruit on campus. Bottom line: the interviews tend be later than IB and consulting interviews.
