Hey guys. I was wondering if anyone can comment on your perception about careers in London. It seems from a distance that it still is in shambles, but since you are more informed maybe you have a different opinion?


Hi Ducksworth

I'm UK based so might be able to shed some light. I'm not working IB/MC/Finance so there may be others with a better view than me but I don't think its too bad. London has come out of the recession and while the banking industry is still taking a bit of a hammering (mostly around regulation and fines), other areas seem to be ok. Some of my friends have been changing jobs and I haven't heard of any redundancies in a couple of years (save banks).

Europe is struggling a bit so that might be an uphill battle.

Maybe put a few tester emails into some UK based recruitment agencies with specialisations in the industries you're interested in?

Has anyone who applied for round 3 been invited to interview already? I know deadline is April 9 but they probably would start the interviews earlier than that.

I am in for R3 - Not heard anything back

I would love to hear back early but I had assumed LBS will come back on the deadline as per their website

Looking at past posts from the last couple of years, it looks like LBS sticks to protocol when it comes to announcing decisions.

yep, I thought as much..

They take a long time to get back, its hard to get excited about other offers when your number 1 school hasn't come back to you yet

So based on when interview invites went out, I am assuming we should be getting an email around 5PM London time tomorrow? This is nerve wrecking......

No one from R2 has heard yet (besides those few in Japan who found out early)?? I thought there should be some decisions rolled out today...

Nothing yet, I am assuming they will be following the same timeline as for interview invites. I am in Boston and my invite came in at 10:30 am EST. Hopefully only two more hours to wait....

London is only 4 hours ahead now, vs 5 when interview decisions came out. So maybe 11:30 am EST? This wait is killing me.
