Does anyone know if/how many ACs PJT already had or if they have given out offers already?


Hey what position did you apply for, did you have an AC and have you heard back from them?

I had mine last week

Many thanks for this - I totally agree with the process though I would still do a SWOT initially.

For what concerns the investment itself, would you ultimately analyze NPV, Payback period and IRR of undertaking the investment or this is something not required during AC? (Specifically PE AC).

Thanks


If it is for PE, then focus on IRR, that is the most important thing PE funds care about when investing, they even do valuation based on target IRR and do reverse engineering to get price to pay in order to achieve their target IRR. Also pay attention to quality of management team and alignment of interests between management and PE fund.

For summer analyst, had three telephone interviews with them but havent heard anything since last monday.

I fear they already filled their places...

Anyone received a face to face with Barclays after their telephone? Didn't know they were conducting face to face before ACs? This is for Risk Grad.

Update: This is the Business Interview and it says this is the final stage of the process. Is Barclays not conducting ACs this year? Any info on this would be great.

Anyone done the Barclays online interview? Would be interested to know what style of questions they ask - competency, strengths etc..

Do people send a follow up email after a phone interview, or is it weird?

Had this same problem last year, bloody pain. Changing to pdf reduces the size.

always a thank you email and if they would be happy to provide any feedback


I thought it was an american practice? I have never heard of it being recommended in the uk.

It would come across as you trying to influence the interviewers decision beyond impartiality.
