Figured I might start a thread cause haven't really seen any for other banks and Baird is usually pretty early. Anyone heard anything from them?

Buddy of mine at a Target (NW/UChicago) got a first round invite just now 11:45am CT. Hope that helps
Makes sense, not holding my breath tbh (non target LAC)
Did he network or apply cold?
I think he just spoke with as many people from his school as he could, none being higher than Associate.
Non-target here, talked to the only dude at Baird from my school and applied. Following
Can also confirm a classmate got a first round at a Midwest target (or at least they did an info session).
Once again, the best players are moving quick and fast and sneakily under the radar.
Get your why MM in order or the top dawgs in the "crank a sell side bitch boi analyst til he cries" space will leave you begging for a coffee chat!!
Sell side or die bro

Does anyone know whether Baird accepts OPT/international students?
It does not. Didn't get a superday because I was an international student.
wtf first rounds out already? how many people should we be talking to at baird? talked to two analysts both were unsure about process
Are you at a target? Seems like its only targets atm? or maybe not even.
Non target
Definitely got the same vibes too, I think a lot of guys are from the area and are at targets for Baird so their processes are streamlined
Hey everyone, I went through this process last cycle and received an offer and am happy to offer my inside information.
Basically the first few "rounds" are very straightforward-some technicals mostly easy behavioral- but the tricky part is that HR dominates this part of the process and your resume still matters a lot. So that's where you have people with good calls get fucked w a ding: because HR only puts so much stock into the junior banker interviews.
Overall this process will wrap up by late April-I'd be shocked if it went into May but you never know.
Can you speak to what type of technicals you got throughout your interview experience for Baird?
Sure. Mostly LBO/accounting stuff. Nothing too difficult. They had this weird essay thing I had to do for like an hour which was bullshit where I was tasked with writing about a company I found interesting. Other ppl from my school in years past faced this as well. Some of my incoming SA cohort didn't so idfk what their deal is. HR man
Any updates?
Anybody receive a second-round yet?
Second rounds?!??! Are you a target?
