Recruitment Season

Hi there,

Q: I would like to know when is the recruitment season for MBB offices in South Africa, Doha, and Saudi Arabia.

They should have it reported on their sites; if that’s not the case, the only option would be to reach out to HR or to someone in the firm (ideally the person who will refer you) for confirmation.

It is a good idea to have a referral before applying. You can find some information on referrals below:

Good luck!

The deadlines tend to change from cohort to cohort and role to role. 

For the summer internship, for instance, most interviews have already happened jan-march.

Reach out directly to the recruiters for each of the firms and find out what is the deadline that is most relevant for you.

Best,
Cristian

Hi there,

Best option is to reach out a recruiter and ask. 

Recruiting dates change by geography, role and cohort depending on target positions and how fast the fill. 

You can check how the recruiting process works from an internal MBB perspective here:

Best,

Hi there,

the only reliable source of information are the recruiters for the respective offices at the individual firms. It's best for you to reach out to them directly.

Depending on the lead time you have before application deadlines come up, it is worth to put in some effort to try to get an internal referral. It is important to get one (if you get one) before you submit your application online. Otherwise it won't count.

Best of luck
