What banks target KCL?

I know it's a weaker semi-target so it's harder to get into Ib from there so I was wondering banks do actually target it. Where can I find that info since I can't find any lists of target unis by bank? My cousin is applying this for Spring weeks and he was wondering which banks target kcl so he can apply to those?

None.

Please stop giving **** advice based on stuff you don't know.

And OP, do not take advice from A-level students.

King's is a weaker semi-target - what's that based on?

Entry requirements aren't stringent to be sure, but it's status in terms of employers internationally and within the international academic community, vastly surpass those of presumably "stronger" semi-target.


Anecdote:

I go to Kings and I can tell you that I have had Lazard, Goldman Sachs (and blackrock) come to the IB/finance/tech (still in the context of finance) societies .

More importantly, there are fast-track programs for certain students at KCL with top IBs like GS, as you'll find out if you join the IB/finance/tech societies.

If you want to confirm this perhaps look at events of its IB/Finance etc societies, look at the networking events, talk to student leaders etc...

TL;DR King's is not a semi-target lol.

Is durham a semi target?

Is durham a semi target?

It is a semi-target, I don't think you quite get what that means: not all banks target it, but a fair amount DO and it simply sends *on the whole* less people into FO roles versus the targets. Targets are pretty firmly in place: Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, UCL, Imperial and Warwick.

I take it you've been on a spring week? You should thus know the representation of various unis.

And FYI, just because *GS* goes on campus does not automatically boost the university into being a target. GS also loves to visit Loughborough and Leeds - are they now targets too?

P.S. entry requirements, the international academic community mean bugger all for finance. Is it really necessary to go on this huge rant about all of that just to be a cheerleader for a uni?

"More importantly, there are fast-track programs...at GS"

You should have had the patience to read up to "more importantly" - do you know what this sentence means.

Also explain how your argument holds with that sentence I quoted.

Ok, did you not read my post or? It's not a bad thing to be a semi-target, just means fewer people become obsessed with finance enough to head into it and not all banks recruit from there.

GS has fast track programmes at a variety of universities - it is probably one of THE most accepting banks around.

Bro. Stop giving advice, you're not a thinker.

"it simply sends *on the whole* less people into FO roles versus the targets "

No university sends people into FO - genius.

A target has sh*t like fast-track programs to facilitate the process.

Now do you understand?

Do you see why university representation means f*ck all?

You're patently wrong though, so f*ck your post. I'm surprised you can even pass a f*cking competency test.

Explain Lazard and Blackrock then - genius.

"More importantly, there are fast-track programs...at GS"

First part was introductory.
