Summer 2017 Applications

You should look to apply for internships applies to final year students??

Interesting, CS MD I spoke to said analysts/associates do the screening.

Maybe the recruiting task force is more broad than I thought...

Looking slightly more into the future...
Do people think hedge funds favour IB guys or traders / can both lead to this?
From what I've read IB possibly ?

Thanks for the reply.
In regards to internships, do you think trading positions will go mainly to maths guys?
I'm doing economics so obvs don't have the same background, although I am good at maths

Would you mention a university transfer in your CV/elsewhere or nah? (2nd year, same course)

Well yeah, otherwise it would look suspect on your CV.

Anyone know how many positions you can apply for (globally) at JPM? Doesn't say much on the website

MS doesn't specify a year of study for its summer internships at all - I am a 2nd year in a 4 year course; should I apply?

No, go for the SW

Doing that already , but also they seem to have the SW open but on the careers page it won't appear at all (only 3 off-cycle internships seem to be open to apps) - any idea why?

I read you can only apply to one.

Do you guys think applying before September is worth it if you don't have an "outstanding" CV?

I was planning to wait and apply with the majority of applicants (relative to which the average CV looks better) in September but since many banks are already opening applications I'm unsure of whether it is a good decision.

You're going to need an outstanding CV if you want to get places at Spring weeks. They're not going to select average applicants and there are plenty of amazing candidates so you need to present yourself as an amazing candidate. The date that you apply doesn't matter unless the bank views applicants on a rolling basis.
