Hahaha same here, I haven't heard anyone even get an AC for IB. Aload of rubbish imo


I looked through last year's thread and didn't see anyone get an AC for IB either. Pathetic really.

Barclays recruitment told me there was an AC for IB grad in early November and when I questioned why the shortlisting email was sent end of November/early December- no response.

I haven’t received the above e-mail yet but I’m sure its on the way.

Completed my VI on 15th October. Got an e-mail 30 minutes ago saying this,

"Thank you for registering your interest in Barclays.

Unfortunately, we do not have any more positions available on this programme, therefore it is with regret that we must decline your application at this stage.

We would like to thank you for the time and interest you have shown in Barclays, and wish you every success in your future career."

Hmm. I haven't received this email but in another thread, someone contacted HR where they said that essentially there's a hiring freeze and therefore no more recruitment for their IB grad programme.

Is this the same as the Capital Markets Analyst scheme?

No, but I think that people have already had ACs for the capital markets analyst scheme.

Oh have they? But the programme is still open on their website. I completed the VI 9 days ago and waiting for a response from them.

I don't know if they have completed all ACs. A few people posted that they had their ACs for capital markets in November or December. Barclays is really slow. I wouldn't be surprised if they're just acting lazy and have forgotten to take down some of the graduate schemes. But that's just my opinion.

Oh okay, thanks. But I am hoping they will be holding more ACs soon.

hi, does anyone know how long a Barclays AC lasts and what is consists off, (e.g. does it involve a group exercise, does it take all day...) the position is HR so I don't know if it will be different from other programmes
