  1. they literally had virtual superdays in 2019 before coronavirus was a thing
  2. springboard and certain target/regional superdays for SA2021 have been virtual
  3. late summer is very optimistic for getting back to the office
  4. do you really think a global bulge bracket is going to base its recruiting off of something thats up in the air time/logistics-wise and may or may not happen?
 

Just a heads up, had an offer from an EB(think MOE/Laz/PWP), and HR was unable to accelerate my process despite MD trying on my behalf.

 
Most Helpful

1) exit ops basically the same from most groups

2) culture/wlb is miles ahead at barcap

3) in house m&a plus capital markets makes for a well rounded experience

ultimately signed with the EB though, still very happy where I ended up

 

I would just continue to check this link: https://joinus.barclays/americas/internships/banking-summer-analyst/

I noticed, from my own observations, that the details (i.e., changed from Summer 2020 to Summer 2021) have been updated and the only thing missing is the live link. If you can remember , just check it out once a week or so.

 

Barclays LA recruiting for SA 2021 positions are probably going to go relatively soon. First rounds are probably going this week and they aim to wrap the process within the next two weeks.

It was posted around July last year, wouldn't be too worried just keep in touch with HR every couple weeks as I wasn't aware it was uploaded at first but was directed to the link then. If it's similar to last year, they won't do superdays until late August to early-mid September so keep up the networking too, resume review will likely be sometime in August as well (again according to last year so no guarantees for this year) so you still have time.

 

please rain MS on me when I was the first to help y'all out with the app being open and interviews. toxic

 

Also at target, high GPA, good major, etc. & have heavily networked with alum. Did this come from networking or an official application?

 

International: Anyone knows if Barclays sponsor this cycle? I know JPM doesn't sponsor SA 2021 for either S&T or IB. Now I'm applying to Barc and see this crap again: "We want to recruit the best people for all our jobs, but there are certain criteria that we must satisfy as a minimum for legal reasons and to protect our customers. Unless we can satisfy these, unfortunately we may not be able to offer you a job. If you wish to continue, please answer the following questions." Can anyone give some color? Thanks.

 

International first year analyst here. BarCap + lawyers entered us in H1B draw before graduation, and I ended up being sponsored. NYC IBD and Chicago IBD (2019 SA/2020 analyst) sponsored, unsure of policies after visa ban. Associates are always sponsored. If you are on F-1 and your school gives you CPT, you do not need to be sponsored for your internship. Check the box that you have the right to work (not permanently, don’t make that mistake) because you do on OPT/CPT and they take care of the rest.

The legal obligations to customers are making sure you don’t have any business ties to Iran and North Korea usually.

 

I applied to the Barclays diversity program but did not make it past the phone interview. Can I still apply to the internship? On the website it says that we can only apply to one program per recruiting cycle

 

Apps just opened, anyone know when they will look at them/start interview process? heard it wont be for a while?

 

Anybody know if/when HireVues would get sent around for IBD? Do they review and not get back to you for a week or two or do they get sent around immediately?

I did the Barclays diversity program but didn't get an offer, and I was encouraged by them to re-apply to the regular round. Does anyone know if rejected Barclays diversity applicants get a chance to re-interview in the regular round/will they notice our app at all, or is it essentially just restarting again? Sorry if this is a stupid q

 

Does anyone know when the interviews for NYC IB regular recruiting are going out?

 

How likely is it for a non-target to get the first round? or is it strongly based on alumni?

 

Just spoke to an MD and he said he still didn’t have a clear timeline on recruiting, but he should know in a week or two 

 

Also just heard this. Timelines aren't set exactly but SDs probably in Oct maybe early Nov

 

I just received the hirevue and I was wondering anyone who has already given it have any tips?
