I do realize that there's another thread titled Asia IBD SA 2015, however, I think that thread's topic is way too broad since it covers SG, HK, US Schools, HK schools, etc. That's why I started this thread exclusively for kids from the US colleges who are going through the HK IBD SA application process. Please feel free to post your status in this internship hunt!
So far the only banks that sent out their first rounds are:
Barclays
MS
JPM

MS IBD HK has not yet started its 1st round interview process.
Here's what the hr told me 5 days ago
"Decisions concerning timelines for 1st round interviews will be decided once all candidate applications have been reviewed in full. As such, we do not have an idea at this stage as to when interviews are likely to take place."
hmmm.....how come some people from US schools have gotten interviews then?
hope so! anybody know have DB started to interview candidates from us schools?
I got MS first round invitation this morning.
Barclays already sent out first round interviews I think
I just got CS this morning, JPM told me 2nd batch has not started.. May I know if everyone is from core or non-core schools? Does it make a difference regarding the timelines? I am non-core btw.
there's a 2nd batch for JPM...is it only for non-core schools?
Please feel free to comment when you guys hear back from 1st, 2nd and 3rd rounds!
Has anyone heard back from JPM HK IBD? I just had my final round last week
Same here, haven't heard back though,
I think some HK-based students have already gotten offers... I read about it on another chinese forum
yes i can confirm that.
When did these kids interview and when did they get offers? I interviewed last tuesday
Are all MS interviews out? How about baml, CS, and DB?
and I thought 2nd batch for JPM has been sent out already?
MS first round, CS sg first round are out
CSHK 1st is also out. Anybody (US based) heard about Citi 2nd/superday or DB 1st?
are there more than one batches for ms/CS/baml/DB/UBS? Anyone know?
Can confirm BAML CS first round
Isn't MS first round in waves?
Do you know if all Morgan Stanley hk waves are out?
Yes i can confirm that. Was told by one of my MS first round interviewers that they have to finish all first rounds by Dec 1

Anyone heard from GS already?
Gao Hua sent out 1st round invites

Is there one wave for GS hk?
is GS out?
Yes
Is CS still sending out its first rounds?
For HK, yes. The HR said they are still reviewing resumes and an update will come shortly.
yeah you guys will hear back really soon as the interview deadline is around Dec 17 according to the first round interview email.
Did JPM finish sending out its last wave of first rounds?
Anybody US-based heard back from Citi after 1st round?
When can we hear back from UBS?
I do not think UBS gives out first round until late Dec.
GS sovereign analyst out
Has anyone heard from the top four boutiques (Jefferies, Moelis, Macquaire and Rothschild) for HK SA IBD? What's their timeline generally like?
Does Jefferies have SA program in HK?
Also is CS done with sending out its first round? I still haven't heard from JPM (I applied right before the deadline), yet one of my friend already accepted the offer.
Is your friend in US skl? I still haven't heard from JPM after the superday...
When was your superday? I think JPM is still doing final rounds
Is GS HK IBD Out? I think CS first rounds are over?
GS 1st rounds are out. UBS came out this morning
Anyone got Citi email about still reviewing feedback? This is for wave 1 ppl I guess. There are 2 versions of emails, one is informing if selected for next round by end of dec, the other ver is simply stilling reviewing. Dunno the difference.
UBS 1st round out
Anyone heard back from CS?
Anyone heard back from MS second round?
To the last 3 posts: Yes, Yes, and Yes
How long after your first round interview with MS did you receive an invite for second rounds?
What I heard is one week. It took me almost two weeks tho. Are you from a target school ?
Kind of. I'm actually in Canada but my school is comparable to a US target.
Anyone heard back from GS?
is DB out alraedy for first rounds? are there more waves?
is DB out already for first rounds? are there more waves?
Yes GS is pretty much done with invitations DB started but you might still hear back because invitations are from interviewers not HR
Have all BBs sent out all first round invites as for now?
Did JPM and CS finished sending out their first rounds?
bump
Anyone here got interviews at any of the non-bulge bracket firms in HK?
HSBC has finished recruiting
Has Barclays sent out superday invites to US kids?
Has MS finished sending out 2nd rounds?
was told not yet for US-based. But it really depended on when your 1st round happened.
Was Dec 1st the last day of first round? How could they take so long...
I didn't even hear back form JPM for first round and my application page shows "application under review now"
Anyone hear back from DB yet? I go to a target US school, finished online assessments back in November. Haven't been rejected, but also haven't gotten any updates since.
Are invites for GS 2nd round out yet?
Wow, this HK recruiting pace is just a little unbearable compare to the accelerated US program.. Still haven't heard back almost anything for the second round interviews and some of the first round :((
When do you receive superday invite from UBS? Curious if anyone has received it already?
Anyone knows when MS and DB superday will be out?
also how about Nomura
Anyone knows how many rounds UBS have?
Two first round phone calls, than a trip to the assessment center in january. Final rounds are coming out now
You are not from US right?
Has DB finished sending out final rounds?
Has Barclays sent out their AC yet?
Has Barclays sent out their AC yet?
So my application status for CS and DB is under review, doesn't that mean they are still sending out their first rounds??
My understanding is CS is done sending out first rounds - they should be letting candidates know within the next week or so about round 2
any received Citi final rounds this week? all are invites out?
I just finished 3rd round interview with Barclays It's been a week and there's no respond to my email regarding my status Should i wait? or move on
What's the ranking of the HK Bulge Bracket banks?
has anyone heard back from Goldman Sachs for final round?
I was told they come out in early January.
Is GS the only bank that hasn't send out its final round?
Anyone got this yet?
