You still have time to apply for investment banking spring week. If you are reading this and still haven’t applied for any programmes, then unfortunately you have missed a lot of the application deadlines.
However, the good news is you still have time to apply for some. If you want to find out about the opportunities still on offer, this list is a good place to start.
Spring Week is a great way to gain an understanding of what it’s like to work at a bank. It can boost your chance of getting a full internship or graduate job later.
Banks use Spring Week to identify talent early and to kick-start their summer internship application process. Occasionally, they’ll even offer an internship at the end of your Spring Week placement. You can still get summer internships without completing a Spring Week, but it is more difficult.
Most of the investment banking Spring Week programmes last around a week and take place in London during March and April (in the Easter holidays).
What if you miss out on Investment Banking Spring Week – do I have any chance of a summer internship?
If you didn’t know about Investment Banking Spring Week or have left it too late to apply, you do have other options. Some banks attend campus careers fairs or run networking events, such as drinks evenings and banking dinners. Check with your university careers service or student finance society. The Bright Network also has a calendar of networking events.
Your CV will need to demonstrate that you are interested in and committed to a banking career.
