Anyone know who is still recruiting Houston O&G?

I come from down in the valley, where mister when you're young, they bring you up to do like your daddy done
 

I am a current part-time student at a top school halfway through my MBA. I was told that I would not be hired on as an associate at a MM IB since I had not finished my MBA. This sounds ridiculous since I have already completed the analytical finance/investment/corporate finance course sets. Based on their logic, I could take all management/ops/qualitative courses from here on out and add zero value to my financial skills and still be a viable candidate post-graduation. Anyone have any insight on this or could explain their stance? Is this a regulatory requirement?

 

Many if not most non-Wharton/Stern target kids don't take corp fin/valuation before recruiting or at all - that wouldn't be as big a concern to me as the lack of work experience these kids have to even talk about in their interviews...

 

Either this is a lame joke, or people are really out to spread wrong information out here on WSO.

Seriously, just chill the fuck out

 

Sophomore here still trying to look for part-time internships for spring and summer internships. Am I already too late lmfao

 

Same boat as well. It's funny that we are still looking for internships for 2018 and this thread is saying that 2019 are already filled up. Not sure how this will work...

 

in all seriousness... got a Hirevue from JPM this morning. Applied over the weekend. Anyone else get one or know what the questions are this year?

Anyone heard anything about GS and MS recruiting timelines for 2019 SA positions?

At my school, students don't even get access to OCR resources until junior fall . . . wonder how this will work.

 

GS doing an accelerated and regular app timeline. Accelerated will open from March 15-April 15, and those who apply then cannot apply during regular applications if they don't get an early offer, so it's a way for candidates to hedge if they're ready or not yet. I've heard they're trying to take the majority of their class in the early pool

 

This is crazy, we have some banks coming to campus next month. Idek know what I'm doing this summer.My app would be so much stronger if they gave us a few months.

 

I keep meeting analysts and some Associates, MD's occasionally, and I take their contacts info and email them w/ a Thank you note -- just to establish a connection. Most of them respond with something nice.

The plan is to email them again in the spring / summer, and to ask for a firm visit or something. The whole networking game is so ambiguous, though, like I doubt they have much power to make an impact -- if you've got the GPA and the school name, and some demonstrated interest in finance, then you've got the interview, and everything beyond that is up to you.

What would you say is a "helpful contact"?

 

Southern school here. We have about 4 or 5 banks coming in this week from Houston and interviews will be later this month I think

 

I am fairly certain you apply through the regular application portal. Recruitment year- 2019. You can select IBD for division and US cities for location, neither of which were available yesterday. One problem though- for "when can you start work?" the answer selections end with December of this year.

 

If you're having issues with accessing the Early Application for GS: This is probably because you applied last year, so it says you're trying to apply for "incompatible" positions.

Solution: 1. Create a new profile with another email you have or a fake email. 2. The application will open without a problem and it'll ask you somewhere to put your primary email. 3. In that primary email, you can just put the email you used before - it will let you use whatever email you want. :)

 

No one really cares about this, in the end they just look at resumes. It's obvious that if you're applying for a Summer 2019 internship, you'd be available to work at that time, and no one will want you to start working in Dec 2018.

 

Does anyone know how long it takes to a receive a HireVue if you are selected for one? Average timespan?

 

What does an undergrad 10-week GS analyst intern make? Does IB intern make a lot more than securities? After rent and expenses, what can you realistically save? Sorry if dumb questions, I'm just a young puppy trying to learn.

 

is recruiting by school teams confirmed? recently had interviews with school recruiting team, i have no idea what the rest of the timeline is... any input? trying to figure out when these school-team based offers will be out
