A-level Insight days 2016

Scroll to see replies

By not preparing.. Seriously, I'd take it easy. Keep up with news and stuff, but don't go overboard. Your job is to make a good impression and to speak with/network with others.

you literally need to turn up and show interest. you can prepare by thinking of any qns you want to ask the grads in the 30-40 mins you get to speak to them, thats about it. get to know your sw competition as well :smile:

Eh? The only other ones are the ones that pop up during the academic year for uni students (usually first years). It's not particularly relevant to this thread

The CS SW is general FO or BO (ofc you then have to indicate which part of the bank you want to convert into). RBS asks you to order your preferences on the programme, then your sorted based on how well you scored in the aptitude tests.

Nomura have already given out fast track offers obvs

I wouldn't think so as I don't think they are giving offers on a rolling basis (I might be wrong). I applied back in January and haven't heard anything yet. I e-mailed again regarding the status of my application and they simply confirmed they had my application.

Did you apply to any others?

Last year(s) when did you get offers/rejections from the banks that closed applications in early June (like JPM and MS this year)?

last year I heard people receive offers at exactly 13:26 on the 11/06/15, but I heard some people got offers at 13:30 so might be different this year.
