Hi all, hope you're doing well and staying safe. Wondering if anyone else is going through SA recruiting for Raine - just had my first round interview and wondering if anyone who had one last week has heard back / what your experience was like. Thanks!

Top merchant bank focused on media side of things. Hires from top targets but dont think exits have been as straightforward as IB firms. Ppl tend to stay with firm
Interviewed with them last year -- process was first round -> super Pretty straight forward technicals and behavioral.
For Raine: Study their portfolio companies. Figure out which ones are succeeding and why you like them. Also, more so than any other placed I interviewed at - they hire for the long term, so why banking/merchant banking is important.
guessing you're at Berkeley or diversity because they recruited everywhere else much later.
good luck!
Second everything @nontarget2021" has said. Absolutely right on and thank you for the reiteration:)
.
I'm at a top target, I think they moved recruiting up for everyone. Bummer though, thanks for the update
So SA 2021 for Raine is no longer open? Emailed recruiter last week and hadn't heard back on a timeline. Am I fucked?
I am pretty sure first rounds were mid april up to tomorrow 4/22
Ah thanks. Did you email their recruiting email? There was no formal application online IIRC
If you're interested in merchant banking space, take a look at GS Merchant Banking, Rothschild, Piper Jaffray, Piper Sandler, BDT, Incentrum Group, and Valquero Capital.
So is it too late to send in an application for Raine? Will they wrap up all recruitment this spring or is there a chance there will be a second wave in the fall/summer?
To OP, I also interviewed with Raine last Friday at a top target. It went pretty well I think and now waiting to hear back. Good luck to you and everyone here we'll keep each other posted:)

bump

Raine has already given out offers for 2021 SA program. Not sure if they are doing it on rolling basis, but a few of my friends already heard back.
So would they be done with recruiting then? No more interviews in the summer/fall?
Raine's intern class isn't that big, so I wouldn't be surprised if all the spots are filled. Wouldn't expect anything in the summer/fall but check with HR.
Any idea when they heard back?
I believe 7-10 days ago.
can Anyone else cofirm that It can a long time ago? cause HR emailed me saying they were gonna use this week.
