Hey - has anyone managed to apply to BNP Paribas? I can only find a long-term ECM internship for Corp Finance online. E-mailed them and they said more graduate opps might appear in the future and I should keep checking, but was wondering if maybe I've just missed the boat on it?
No, they normally recruit later than other banks, not earlier.

I've seen Stategy & Risk Grad 2017 if that's what you might be interested in?
What is the new number of UCAS points banks and other such employers might require at minimum from and use to filter candidates? I know it was 320 UCAS points under the old UCAS points system.
Does anyone have an understanding of what the new figure could be? I know AAA is the equivalent of 144 points now, AAB is the equivalent of 136 points and ABB is the equivalent of 128. So would banks now look at candidates who have over 136 UCAS points?
I ask this and I am concerned by gaining a good number of UCAS points because I am doing an Access to Higher Education Diploma in Business. I'm 19 years old. I was doing A2s last year however I have a complex past and had gone through distress which meant I could not sit my A2 exams in May 2015. I haven['t got much of an option to do new A-levels at this stage.
I am fairly worried over whether doing an Access to HE Diploma may not be looked on as favourably as A-levels would be by investment banks. The maximum number of UCAS points I could gain through my Access course is 144, if I gain 45/45 Distinctions which is what I shall aim for. Am I disadvantaged much by doing an Access course in order to get to a wishfully good university for a Business and/or Management degree?
UCAS points requirement will remain the AAB/AAA equivalent.
