2018 – 2019 Recruiting Process: What should you do now?
As a first year or sophomore starting the recruiting process, the best place to start is learning as much about a firm and the available programs as you can prior to applying and interviewing. To help you navigate through the process, BAML hosts on-campus events at select core schools, webcast sessions for schools across the nation, hosts an Insight Week (see below!) and connects you to their business leaders to build your network.

Insight Week
In April of 2018 the BAML campus recruiting team will host the fourth annual Insight Week, a one-and a half day professional development opportunity targeted at women and underrepresented freshmen and sophomores interested in firm-wide career opportunities. If you’re selected, BAML will bring you to their Charlotte or New York office. You will have the opportunity to meet with senior business leaders from across the firm, conduct mock interviews, attend resume workshops, take part in professional growth activities, and begin to build your network of contacts at BAML. The deadline to apply to Insight Week is February 7.
