London IBD/PE

Hi, I wish to create a discussion to try to recap the application process steps for SA programs in all major banks in London (BB + EB + others). For example, I know that GS is:

CV + 300w letter ---> HireVue ---> AC,

while JPM is

CV + CL (Optional) ---> Pymetrics + Hirevue (for all) ---> (1/2Phone calls?) ---> AC

Could we do it for all banks, from GS/MS to BNP/Nomura?

Thanks!

Respectfully I would prefer if we kept this thread on topic. The information you desire is constantly updating and readily available elsewhere. 

 

Bump! We'd need the next banks... now we have: 

GS: CV + 300w letter ---> HireVue ---> AC

JPM: CV + CL (Optional) ---> Pymetrics + Hirevue (for all) ---> (1/2Phone calls?) ---> AC

MS: CV + CL + Tests ---> 2 Phone calls ---> AC

BAML: CV + Questions ---> Alumni Phone call ---> AC

Citi: CV + CL ---> Tests ---> Phone call ---> AC

Nomura: CV + Questions + Tests ---> Phone call ---> AC

BNP: CV + Tests  ---> AC
