Career Resources
Teams?
Debt - GDF at Santander and equivalent for HSBC. Would also be interested in levfin and M&A.
What exactly is the team at each bank? Debt is a quite broad theme
Summer or Grad?
Levfin or "LAF" at HSBC is strong. Rest of the IB is crap.
Santander is better for M&A but not as strong on tbe lending side.
How good is San M&A? Is it easy to Lateral to a BB/EB
HSBC way better. Santander friend always complains.
Is it the hours?
Graduate programme is basically 18 month and the pay is extremely bad compared to the street. The hours, 9-11 (higher in deals), are note good when considering pay. Also grads don't get a chance to model first year or so.
