@RocketToTheMoon" I think your argument about minorities is misguided. Many minorities attending spring programs and general BB recruiting are among the top qualified candidates who get offers because they are qualified. There are also several candidates who are considered minorities that successfully go through general recruiting for RX and boutique not because they are minorities but because they are qualified.

 
  1. Power & Utilities
  2. NatRes
  3. Healthcare
  4. Consumer Retail
  5. FSG

Generally the most sought after coverage groups at Barcap with P&U being top on the street in energy

 

yea i was told they would be on campus for interviews at my target the week of classes starting, must be a little more relaxed timeline (relatively)

 

Spoke to a VP and he said recruiting wont begin till august/sept for targets, and then nontargets after. At this rate tho everyone hears something different so who knows whats right

 

Recently spoke with an analyst from my school (east coast target) who mentioned that the process has already begun and a few hires have been made; however, that there are also a few positions remaining for IBD NYC that they're "looking to fill relatively soon". Not sure what that means or how accurate this was, or if the description only applies to my school in particular but just wanted to inform everyone

 

Does anybody know how the timeline looks for Barclays S&T SA positions? I am from a nontarget and just wondering when first rounds/superdays invites might be extended?

 

Got told by two MDs in charge of the recruitment at my school (Target) that the recruitment depends on the school. For example mine is the second week of September as they are coming to campus. So no one from my school would receive a first round interview before this date. I guess for all schools that have barclays coming it should be the same. Hope that helps

 

Anyone have any insight on S&T timeline? For first rounds or superdays? I know they just had a S&T superday, but I am not sure if that is the only one.

 

Anyone has had two phone interviews with Barclays? I had one yesterday but today someone else reached out to me for another phone interview. This is for S&T.

 

Also can confirm. Signed last month and my contacts aren't even coming to campus anymore for OCR that was planned this month (got myself into a superday before 1st rounds were selected at my target). Word is yield was super high but I'm curious if this will change after all of the BAML/JP superdays this month.. might have an influx of reneging

 

Anyone know what to expect in an OCI for NYC IBD? It's also scheduled for 1. hours with three different people, it seems like. Isn't that pretty lengthy for a first round?

 

Spoke with an MD in the recruiting process - mentioned that they were looking to see if they "still had opportunities to fill/open". Would it be alright if I ask what type of school you go to (target, HYP, etc.) and how much networking you did?

Thanks and best of luck on the superday! Happy to pm about some super days with other firms for general help, though I can't pretend to be an expert by any means

 

Accepted a sophomore offer last month for NYC. Northeastern target school(think T10 but not H), 4.0, with prior internships at boutique IB. I know its typical for juniors to intern, but happy to answer any questions on the sophomore process.

 

White male, middle class. But thanks for the assumptions about my ability. Good luck kid.

 

Put on hold after a superday last week. Any tips on maximizing my chances going forward? What are my odds after being put on hold?

 

When did you have your Superday? IB or S&T? I had mine last Friday but havent heard back yet....

 

On the same boat (As in also placed on hold), it seems that they placed a couple kids on hold so I do not know if that is the informal rejection or there is a legitimate wait-list
