I believe you can only apply to one division, someone correct me if I'm wrong
wondering this too
Anyone receive superday offers for Barclays Menlo Park yet?
Not yet, had first round last week. Can anyone comment on super day invites?
Also, I have friends that got NYC first rounds this week
Do you know when they applied? Also, may I ask if they go to a designated target? I go to a semi-target non-Ivy (Michigan, Emory, UVA, Georgetown, etc.) and am curious if the invites for superdays were all sent out at once or if only the top target schools got the first round of invites.
Thanks and best of luck!
Not sure when they applied but they are also at a semi-target. They got first round invites for NYC. No super day invites that I am aware of (someone correct me if I'm wrong) for NYC or SF yet
So you go to Emory.
Any super day invites for Menlo Park Office yet? (for those who had first rounds last week)
When will non-targets hear back?
Do they have an automated GPA cutoff?
.
When did they apply? I know the diversity and sophomore programs did an early round of recruiting, but this would be the first I've heard to get normal-round SA offers
Menlo Park or NYC?
I know of 2 people with offers for 2020 as well. Received them in late May.
NYC or Menlo Park?
NYC
Did anyone get a second round of phone screens for Menlo Park office yet?
.
Accepted offer in may. Happy to answer any questions. Semitarget
When did you send in your application and when did you receive a first round?
I know two people who got offers through the sophomore springboard this past spring. Both of them said they barely even got asked any technicals.....must be nice being a minority lol
.
Well that just is not true. If anything, spring recruiting was more technical.
@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.
Power and utilities
Stay away
Generally the most sought after coverage groups at Barcap with P&U being top on the street in energy
_
Can I ask when did you submit the app and what was the first round like?
Has Barclays NYC already done with S&T summer analyst for 2020?
anyone else in the process with Menlo Park?
Trying to revive this -- anyone hear anything back yet for NYC or Menlo Park?
I know mid-July superday invites for NYC were sent out to kids from core schools
Was there a first-round or straight to super?
.
Applied back in June and haven't heard anything. Are they doing a second wave as well?
Superdays will continue throughout the summer
My school is a target for Barclays, and I got word from HR that we will have mid-September interviews on campus.
Got same info from an associate
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 with an ib contact of mine who said interviews are on-campus (target) in mid September but they're trying to get clearance to have some accelerated interviews in August
I'd err more on the side of accelerated interviews for target schools. A director told me they're trying to wrap up by the time school starts.
True, I can def see IBD 1st rounds being pushed up to August
Has there been a superday yet for Menlo Park?
Heard from somebody in s&t that super days will be taking place in September
Heard the same so not quite sure how one guy got an offer in June
Deleted
any new info for non-targets in regards to timeline?
curious as well
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
yea thats definitely tru
just got an email for a first-round, rising junior target non diversity, anyone else?
Seems like they're accelerating the process, good to hear
Can I ask around what time you submitted your application?
Was there an online assessment and is the first-round a phone interview with Associate/VP?
It's with an associate, no online assessment
Is your school doing on campus interviews for barclays in september as well?
Applied like 6 weeks ago but haven't heard back regarding anything. I go to a target. Anyone in a similar situation?
anyone hear anything about august 15th superday?
I can confirm that there is one.
Anyone hear back yet from the July 26th superday for Menlo tech office?
Menlo Tech Office hosted their super day on July 26th? wow...
A couple of MD's emailed back to me telling me that they believe the summer 2020 recruiting process is over.
That's just not the case at all
Why are people throwing MS. He is just saying what he was told. Doesn't mean it's correct.
Im just so confused. Is Barclays still doing interviews for targets schools in aug/sept?
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
Heard completely different info from this, from two analysts that are on the recruiting teams for different northeast targets
Can I ask what you've heard? Feel free to PM me as well! Out of PM's for some reason..
For my school Barclays has been done for a while, last superday was 2 weeks ago, they took a bunch of people really early in the spring
Any idea how many they took from your school? Trying to get an idea for how many positions are realistically available
By the time regular recruiting started (after diversity and kids who got early offers that leveraged) for my school which usually sends 5-10 kids to IB at Barclays there was only 1 spot left they were pushing for 2
What divisions was the superday for?
IB
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?
I was told by MDs on the floor that its in Late August beginning September. But now I'm reading different stuff in this group chat
Is that for first rounds or superdays?
I'd definitely take the word of MDs over the kids on this forum. Don't let a bunch of kids make you think they know more about recruiting than the bank's actual employees.
HR said that they'd interview on my target campus the 1st week of September, but they might push up the timeline "depending on demand"
Does anyone know when Barclays super days are for non-target schools?
Following
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
Is this for IBD or S&T?
Applied to Barkley back in early July but still haven't heard back. Am I out? Semi-target so no OCR for me.
Just got first-round phone interview for ST. Applied back in early June.
Are you target? Or diversity?
Non-target. Diversity
Same, non-target
Are you diversity?
which school do you go to? I am nontarget as well but have not heard back
I am top 15 in the south.
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.
When was the S&T superday they just had?
Depends if they don campus recruiting for your school
anybody have info on hirevue for barclays? behavioral or a mix with technical questions? thanks
how about NYC office ? have not heard anything yet
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.
when did you submit your barclays application?
Early July
Same thing happened to me
Received superday for IB. Target school, 3.7 GPA did a lot of networking
Applied through my school career website and application status changed to reviewed recently, but I have not gotten any word from Barclays. Anyone know if this means anything?
Might be a ding tbh this late into the process but there's still time so don't worry too much.
Still no update from anyone at my target
Anyone from HYP receive a phone interview yet? Just curious if theyve already sent invitations
I'm from HYP and have an MD going to bat for me and haven't heard anything about first rounds yet, so I wouldn't stress too much. It seems like the mid-September timeline for targets is the most accurate.
Co-signing the mid-september timeline, also from a target
Any update?
Bump
Just heard from HR that recruiting has gone so well at core schools that they are no longer going to consider anyone from non targets. "we have seen a high acceptance rate this season and don’t anticipate we will have additional needs to move forward with our non-core process".
awesome, I hate working with nontargets
Going to echo this sentiment here. Was told at a target superday that early rounds of recruiting went so well that they hadn't actually been urgently looking to fill spots. Would assume that non-core schools are going to have very limited supply, if any.
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
Just received a s&t first round with an alum
Is it on-campus? When did you submit ur application?
Phone call, I applied on the website on June but on my school's resume drop in August
s&t seems to be earlier than ib
First round NYC IB OCI
vandy?
nope
Bump. Anyone else get first round OCR?
When did u get the invite?
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?
NY superday set for the 27th, anyone got any tips for prep?
Is this for IB only?
m&i 400, know your resume, story, current events you should be fine at barc
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
Has anyone had a superday ST
Did you receive one?
Got an invite to the superday on September 27 a few days ago.. Currently go to a target with two boutique IB internships
Is this for IB?
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.
woman/diversity/family connections?
White male, middle class. But thanks for the assumptions about my ability. Good luck kid.
Has anyone heard anything for credit research superday? Completed first round last Friday
Haven’t heard anything yet. Any update from you?
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
How do you know this is being placed on hold? did they tell you since friday 20th that you were place on hold?
How do you know this is being placed on hold? did they tell you since friday 20th that you were place on hold?
Received a call day of superday informing me of their decision
Anyone heard back from last Friday Sept 20th Superday???
Is you Sep 20th super day for IB or S&T? Btw are you diversity or from a target?
S&T, target and non-diversity
S&T, target and non-diversity
can confirm Sept 20 superday, got an invite for their S&T in NYC
also received an invite for super day 9/20, haven't heard back yet though
