2 (or 3, cant remember) weeks, value a company that you're assigned, present at the end to Associates and VPs.
its a 2 week program. you learn various parts of the deal process in the mornings and then get assignments for the afternoons/evenings. it's meant to imitate the analyst experience so all-in expect to work 90-100 hours for each of the weeks there.
great opportunity to learn a lot before a traditional 10 week sa position and they make offers out of the bootcamp
Can you please post the link for the boot camp? Thanks.
Did you get accepted for the boot camp?
Can anyone provide the link for bootcamp?
Seriously? It doesn't take an Ivy League degree to realize you can look it up on the Harris Williams website.
Didn't get accepted, saw the listing on my school's OCR and was curious if anyone had anything to say about it.
They do cover housing and its right next to the office.
I applied for it, haven't heard back yet. Has anyone that applied heard back yet?
Wait, so is this something for FT or SA?
has anyone heard back from them?
Hi guys, I am gonna have a phone interview with one of HW&Co. HRs for a lateral hire. Do you know what to expect? She just said that we are gonna talk about my background etc...
Thanks

Has anyone participated in this program? If so, could you please PM me. I would appreciate some insight on the program.
Thanks in advance.
I am also interested in the recruiting process. If anyone has any insight, please share.
A friend at my school did it last summer. I do know they mainly recruit at the top southern schools for the program (Vanderbilt and UVA, I know for sure; I forgot what other schools he mentioned, but probably Duke as well) given their location in Richmond, and take about 10-20 kids into the program. It's a pretty intense two weeks, but better than a full summer in banking. I think about 60% got offers to come back full time.
They recruit largely from UVA, W&L, UNC, Vandy for the Boot Camp. Roughly 12 seats available for 2 weeks in May. It is paid and the firm provides housing...offer is possible at the end of the program which is sweet if you have another SA gig during the summer.
Also, for information about the program itself, the program is a 2-week mock M&A sell-side transaction. You learn the process from start to finish and it is also a way to judge fit for a potential offer.
Good luck!
So is this a program for juniors who aren't doing SA at Harris Williams? Or do they take younger people?
It's in lieu of a regular summer analyst program for rising seniors.
are there any other programs like this?
