Applied everywhere except for Blackrock where will apply now. Rejected from MS, BAML, Lazard, DB, UBS and Nomura. The best I got was the final stage at BAML. No offers (except for summer internship at PE which I obviously accepted straight away). Most of the rejections were after interviews. I am not too fussed about spring weeks tbh, as I am going abroad to University of Hong Kong for the following semester so it would be pricy and too much hassle. But anyway, if i got an offer i would of course go.

btw whats the whole BP thing? Spring week? Would you mind providing a link?

That moment you get an email from HR but it's just them saying your app is still under review for the second time -_-

Oh yeah forgot about my MS rej.

Tbh bro, you'll have better luck next year in summer apps if my friends are anything to go by. SWs are nice and all but not the end of the line at all for getting into the industry - most people will have to end up re-applying for summers. Plus a PE internship will look solid on your CV.

HK is a sick place man (used to live there), sure you'll have a blast! Make sure to sample as much of the food as poss and ofc the girls

Spring week (called 'Discovery Week' in their physical trading arm (BP IST), it's paid iirc.

For the non-UK students, were you interviewed by people from your same country?

cheers man. good luck to you as well and yeah i am looking forward to go to HK!

It has not happened to me according to my own experience, but I wouldn't say it's impossible

No, who interviews you depends on the division you apply to. They don't have time to look at your nationality.

Rej from DB, reason they put was I am graduating in 2020 ( MEng 4 year course). Highly doubt this was the real reason as JPM had no issues and invited me to telephone interview. Is it worth emailing explaining my situation? (I have the opportunity to change to a BEng 3 year course).
