Hi Monkeys, I recently checked the status of the application portal and it said "You are under consideration for an interview" for my London IBD SA, but I received nothing as of mails from them. Yet my other application for a continental off-cycle internship (same position) is still "Your application is being evaluated" Does that mean anything? Would I receive a sudden call/mail/interview soon? Or it is just the tricks of JPM HR team... This is my first time applying for SA, would like to know more!! Thanks!!

I accepted a general IB SA offer in NYC and I have 0 guidance in this. All I know is that M&A is the most "prestigious" but I have several questions and I would appreciate if anybody had answers to any of these... What is the ranking in terms of prestige? What is the ranking in terms of pay/likelihood of large signing bonus bc of deals? Is it easy to switch around divisions? Which groups give the most full time offers? Which are easiest to transition to PE? Which are the best to stay in and work your way up in JPM?

Can someone provide insights on Wedbush Securities (LA)? Specifically their ER dept? What % of summer interns get full-time offers at Wedbush? And what do the exit opportunities look like? Can you transfer into IB later? Can you get into ER at some other top firm (JP, Goldman, etc)? How does the compensation compare to consulting firms?

Looking forward to starting my SA position with JPM Private Bank on the east coast (non NYC) and was wondering if anyone on this forum has relevant experiences or advice they would be willing to share. What should I know going in? What might my hours look like? How many SAs at the non NYC offices? Anything is helpful.

Hi everyone! :) I am a Spanish graduate student attending an Ivy League university in the US (think Wharton/Columbia/Yale) studying finance and economics. I know I want to work in the Buy Side but I am still unsure if I should do AM or PB. I appreciate work/life balance and I would like to work in EU (UK/ Spain/ Switzerland) after graduation. I have two interesting offers for this summer and both have pros and cons, so I am not sure which one to choose, given that both want me to intern with them on July-August. The positions and characteristics are the following: 1. Dodge & Cox -

Hi all, I am looking for more color regarding the best groups at JPM London office. Best exposure and best exits. Also, more information regarding the technology and media & telco groups. Prestige, exits and more Most of the technology biggest deals come from the US. How is technology in Europe? Would you have a better exposure in other groups?

[quote]JPMorgan Chase & Co. (JPM) is being sued by a trader who says he accepted a contract from the investment bank because a typographical error made him believe he would be paid 10 times what was actually offered. Kai Herbert, a Switzerland-based currency trader, is suing JPMorgan for about 580,000 pounds ($920,000), his lawyers said at a trial in London this week. The original contract said Herbert's annual pay would be 24 million rand ($3.1 million). JPMorgan blamed the mistake on a typographical error and said the figure should have been 2.4 million rand, according to court documents. [

Hey guys! I was wondering if anyone knows what JPM's strongest groups are in HK (in terms of general reputation and exit opps). My personal favorites are M&A and TMT (JPM has its SAs do a two-team rotation), but as an incoming SA, I'm afraid that the competition for return offers will be much tougher in these "sexy" groups. Are my concerns well-founded? Also, is it better to start out in an industry group or product group? Long term goal is PE/VC in Asia.

I have an offer from Google for their financial analyst program and an offer from a BB S&T group (BOA, Citi, JPM, Wachovia, etc). The all-in pay is surprisingly very similar. I would be at Google's HQ, but only at a non-NYC location for the BB S&T group. Any thoughts? Which would help me get into a top 5 MBA program? I would really like some feedback from top 5 MBA alums and people who have been in either industry for some time already (if possible). Thanks.

I have the possibility of joining one of the following groups at JP Morgan in London: M&A FIG Natural Resources Industrials TMT I'd be very interested in getting any feedback from someone who might have insight into: +work hours (I'm guessing FIG might have the longest) +amount of modeling done +responsibility early on (I hear the M&A team is pretty young) +transferrable skills for a non-banking position later on (think Capital Markets, this might be the same for all groups though) +size of the group (balance between Senior and Junior people) +anything else that might be helpful in getting a better understanding of them Thanks in advance!

From Chief Investment Officer Thomas J. Feeney (www.Thomasjfeeney.com) [quote]The news of the week was that JPMorgan Chase (JPM), held in esteem by many as the pre-eminent mega-bank, had sorely miscalculated and lost a couple of billion dollars or so on what was characterized as a "hedge." These guys were reputed to be the best and the brightest. If this was a hedge, where are the offsetting profits? You will find that the article was originally written by This debacle was not the work of a single rogue trader. Allegedly, the decisions were made in the Chief Investment Office. Late in the day

Hello! I have the following question regarding the choice of a summer analyst internship for the three roles: Merrill Lynch - IBD JP Morgan - S&T Goldman Sachs - IMD institutional sales I think this is particularly a hard decision as I am very interested in all three of them and each of them carries certain value to the so-called the make-up of the best job "what you are interested in, what you are good at and what has better growth opportunity".

I got an email saying that I passed the initial screening (which i am assuming is the resume screening) and that I have been invited to take the numerical and logical reasoning tests which I believe I have done quite reasonably well considering I already have a very high LSAT score and have practiced SHLs previously. I was wondering how long JPM takes to get back to you regarding moving on or notifying that you have been disqualified for further advancement in the process? this is for full time IBD position in asia

Recently there have been a few articles floating around about the IB's joint venture with T&SS called the Global Corporate Bank. I know a few articles mentioned that both LOBs will be investing heavily to expand it over the coming years. I wanted to know if any of you had any insight on whether there will be any demand for analyst in this division and if so where would they be coming from (the IB's or T&SS's 2010 analyst program)? Thanks!

Hi all, I'm a junior just starting to think about a career in finance, and have been trying to learn more, go to recruiting events, etc. Just had a quick question-- how competitive are events like JPM Winning Women, and GS Engineering Summit etc-- basically anything you need to apply for? I applied to both, and was rejected, which is really making me worry. Is this a signal that I need to start looking into something else/ completely revamp my resume (HOW?), or should I just keep plugging forward? Just for reference, my GPA made the cutoffs, but it isn't great. Do you think this played a huge factor? Thanks for any advice.

http://dealbreaker.com/2012/09/JPMorgan-helpfully… Per JPMorgan, regulations that are being phased in will cause 28,241 additional layoffs just among the eight big banks named here – ignoring in particular more banking-focused US names like BAC, C and of course JPM itself – and it will cause a $70k average drop in comp for those who are left, all just to get back to a plausible run-rate of 13% (for "Tier I" DB/GS/Barclays) or 10% (for "Tier II" others) ROEs.

I received full time offers from Deloitte Consulting's Strategy & Operations arm and JPM's Risk Management division. I know they're very different, so it's hard to compare. But if anyone could shed light onto what the culture/vibe of each firm is like, how they vary, exit opportunities, skillsets each side requires, the pros&cons of both, types of people, leadership, prestige, etc. that would be great.

Received a few offers for trading desks in equities/fixed income in hk/sg. Here is what I understand now: Equities trading is mostly based out of hk. The location of fixed income desks (rates, credit and forex) depends on the bank, though commodities is mostly in sg. So, Could anybody shed some light on the rationale for choosing between equities/fixed income and hk/sg? More specifically, equities trading desk with Credit Suisse in hk and fixed income trading desk with JPM in sg. Anybody who has experience with these banks in hk/sg please feel free to weigh in and comment on their internship programs and relative strengths of different products/desks. Thanks!

Since the whole synthetic credit portfolio loss JPM has taken a lot of heat from the press and the government. In my opinion the loss was inconsequential, it will most likely effect one or two quarters earnings at most, but that's not what I am here to talk about. I want to show a senate hearing where Dimon spent an hour under some stress. The way he handled this situation, the way he runs JPM, and his personality are some of the reasons I think JD is the man. This link is a testimony he gave to the senate voluntarily. He stuck to his guns and took responsibility for the trading loss. (from Jun 13) Dimon's senate testimony

In two days I will have interviews at Morgan Stanley. This will be with the BNS team. Does anyone have tips for this interview? Maybe know some brain teasers? I heard the like to give you really hard calculations, does anyone have experience with this? Think of numbers to the power 3 etc... I will also have interviews at JP and GS, maybe some tips? I am not really a die hard finance girl and I only have the breaking into wall street guide. Maybe some tips for the pymetrics test at JP as well!

I have to rank my preferences for the Finance Analyst Development SA position from 1-5 (1 being best and 5 last). The functional roles include Planning & Analysis, Accounting/Reporting & Control, Treasury, Business Management, and Investor Relations. Which ranking would be most useful for future exit ops to more of an investment related job? This is what I'm thinking so far: 1) Planning & Analysis - teams are responsible for all facets of planning, reporting and analysis of the full Profit & Loss Statement (P&L) on a global basis. Additionally, P&A partners with senior management across the business to deliver on many of their most important business strategies, growth and development plans.
