Thanks for the number, I'll try again if I receive no response in a few days. I don't want to call back yet as it feels like I'm being treated like crap.

Still no response from UBS Explore either and no response to the mail I sent 4 days ago.

I can definitely say that UBS won't be my first choice If I get any offers.

Can we get a list going for all apps that are open or when they are due to open?
For all AM, IB, consultancies, big 4 etc

(Also any actuaries in the house, where you guys applying?)

for those fancy on AM, they usually open slightly later thank banks. up to now, as far as i know, only BlackRock and M&G Investments are open, while Aberdeen is opening on 1st sept.

BTW for those interested in the buy side, the Vault Guide could be a first interesting reading. (This is last year edition, so do not care about the deadlines stated there)

If it makes you feel any better, I sent them a question via their email 2 weeks ago and still no response

What do you think they mean by our applications being "screened". I thought they already got screened to see who would be accepted on to the Explore programme?

I have no idea, I don't know what to write back to them but a friend of mine asked them how many people got invited...90. That's way too many for fast track isn't it?

Humm, if it includes spring weeks though? Who knows.

Is it just me or are the markets and corporate finance internships the only ones open at the moment on the deutsche bank website?

I'm doing BSc Financial Mathematics at a top 10 non-target uni, you?

Anyone know when Barclays will open?
Do Greenhill actually send rejections within their 48-72 initial application timeframe. Or will you just not hear back?

Have you had a test invite?

Sent my application on Wednesday morning (very early hours), and still waiting.

Sent mine a couple of days ago also and heard nothing. From what I gather, after everyone heard they were giving out interviews, I'm assuming they've been overwhelmed, haha.

Does anyone know how long you have to do the SJT for RBS? Is it 48 hours?

From my university careers network. I didn't realise how good the opportunities posted were and applied far too late for everything aha

No I haven't had a test invite. I sent my application last Friday, around 8pm. So I'm assuming they have not had a chance to look at it until this Monday. But still it's been like close to 4 days. It's not bad but considering some people already have interviews I don't know what's taking them so long. If they have to reject me then do it quickly lol.

Oh well I'm assuming no news is good news for now.

If anyone could provide me with the list of all the online test providers for all the BBs and the big 4 that'd be great! e.g SHL/ Kenexa
