Investment Banking in LatAm / Brazil

Hi guys,

I am currently based in Brazil and working at a M&A boutique, but looking forward to make a lateral move to IB at a local investment bank or global BB branch.

I've seen that recruiting processes in the U.S. and Europe have been going relatively well, even with the COVID-19 situation. What about LatAm, Brazil, Chile, etc.?

Are recruiting processes frozen? Have they been suspended? If yes, when do you think banks will start hiring again?

If someone based in Sao Paulo could provide some input regarding this, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks!
