Last week, I received a 30 minute interview via phone for the JP Morgan Early Advantage Program and a few days later, I was accepted. It looks like its going to be on July 24 – July 25, with the Credit Suisse event being on July 26 so that will be a full week.
Will keep you all posted on what I learn from those events. I haven’t heard of a Bank of America event yet as they have the pre-MBA fellowship pipeline, but Citi has a pre-MBA fellowship event as well as a military networking event in November.
Also found an event with Barclays that occurred in November of last year, can’t link directly to the website but here’s the link, click Programs, and then Veterans (Veterans program no longer exists, but I will update this info when it does):
“Event will take place in our New York office on Friday, November 4, 2011
Applicants must RSVP by submitting an updated pdf resume to this address with subject “Veterans Networking Event” by Friday, October 7, 2011
Applicants will be notified of their status by Friday, October 21, 2011.”
hey dude I will be at the JP morgan event as well. congrats on getting into both!
See you there
Hi,
I’ve been reading your post for past couple of days and got me rethink about my pla in career.
I appreciate for posting these information.
Thanks
Glad to help
How did the citi event go?
Is citi hiring actively or finance specifically?
Citi event isn’t happening until November 16
If I’d like to participate in veteran networking, what should I do? I had a few experience in retail banking with CFA level II candidate.
Can you run me some points to run the plan?
I think the first step is to just attend one networking event, once you get your foot in the door, it is on you to navigate the system and locate veterans in the desired industry/company/group and work your way in there. If you are attending an MBA program, this will automatically happen in the Sept/Oct time frame so don’t worry
