Are Barclays even hiring any IBD graduates in London? I can only find European locations...

Hi guys, new to tsr, i've just done a summer internship but failed to convert to full time and now i have to start all over again :frown:

From what i've been hearing it seems applying for summer internships again is the best way in for a full time place? but in that case who applies for grad schemes directly then if even incoming final year guys (like myself) are competing for these summer internships again?

If any of you guys are in the same situation as me how are you balancing between full time grad and summer internship application?

Not all banks let you apply for summer if u are a final year. Just apply for summer if its possible otherwise go for grad.
Assuming for Deutsche Bank after you've passed the online test that it goes through yet another round of screening?

Also, for RBC, does anyone know how long you have to do the tests? Does the Verbal come through first, followed by Numerical?

What I make of the email Deutsche sent me is yes, the whole application gets screened again. Has anyone heard from Deutsche after taking the test?

For RBC you have 5 days to do the test. Verbal first, followed by numerical as you said.

Hi guys, I'm a recent grad from nottingham university and starting my masters at UCL later this month.
On my resume/cv besides the course/name of my uni (UCL), what else can I put down?!
Due to the early application opening I will be submitting my form before i start at UCL, so im lost on what i can put down, please help.
