En lista från en bank säger inte mycket. Olika banker jar olika relationer med olika skolor. Finns säkerligen någon bank någonstans där CASS ligger bäst till.
Bygger min åsikt på det man hört på careers fairs, från vänner som pluggar på i princip alla de skolor vi hanterat i tråden och från vänner som redan jobbar med banking. Ingen fakta som sagt, eftersom det troligtvis inte ens finns någon sådan.

Utger mig inte för att vara någon expert på området, men 'the general consensus' talar för att LSE är absolut i topp. Enligt vissa, bättre än Oxbridge. Kolla gärna på den här tråden (om du har tid o lust med något så meningslöst som detta

). Med denna vill jag visa att din åsikt ang. LSE är ganska "ovanlig" och att den inte stämmer överens med hur majoriteten av finansfolk tycker (ja, jag känner också folk inom IB och studenter vid nämnda universitet).

Några utdrag från debatten:
"lol, we have all seen LSE grad intake statistics for interns/grads several times on this forum which shows that the uni is very well represented. From my global analyst training class this year in NY, LSE
was the 2nd uni in the table with most grads (Harvard first)."
"Remember that article is about which universities banks actively target, not where they accept candidates from. Generally the targetting focuses on universities banks would like to have more students from and not those - liker LSE - where almost every student already thinks about banking (even if they don't apply). LSE getting so many people into banking and banking having such a high profile there could be the reason it's actively targetted less, while
still accounting for a huge proportion of a banks intake. This isn't the first time I've heard recruiters say LSE is not in the "inner circle" to be targetted, yet
the number of LSE students getting banking jobs suggests that it's not discriminated against in any way when it comes to the application." -

"The sheer number of LSE students that attend corporate events makes it difficult for recruiters to pick out the gems. I would imagine that at Oxbridge and Imperial it's a different story.
I do think that this whole "inner and outer" circle thing is misleading though especially in the context of the article.
By saying LSE isn't a targetted university you're just going to create controversy. If everyone at LSE woke up one day and thought, you know what, to hell with banking, you'd bet your life it would make the "inner circle"."
"plus i somehow doubt somehow LSE falls outside that trio, at least
going by the proportion of LSE students that tend to make up analyst classes"
"
My securities intern class comprised mostly of Oxbridge/LSE students, a couple from Imperial, one or two from Warwick/Bristol and the rest international (almost half).
The guys I was working with were mostly Oxbridge/LSE and one or two Imperial.
That said, as mentioned in the other thread, it seems that it's reffering to universities which banks would like to hire more from (For example much fewer students at Imperial may know about IB and therefore may get more attention from banks in terms of events etc.) So I don't think anyone from LSE has got anything to worry about compared to other universities"
"Yeh, I would have put LSE waaaay ahead of Imperial for IB. LSE
"s international reputation is on a par with Oxbridge"s (possibly even better than Cambridge"s reputation), whereas I don"t think that Imperial is that well known abroad. And here in Britain, Imperial and LSE"s reputation is about on a par, but Imperial for Sciences, LSE for Social Sciences. So...this is weird."
"Really I don"t contest that you have a great chance from Imperial, but
I do contest that if you come from Imperial you"re in the "magic circle" but from LSE you"re not. That just doesn"t ring true, I would have
put LSE maybe ahead even of Oxford, given its location, influence and reputation in the financial world, and given that its economics degree is so well regarded whilst Oxford"s is meant not to be that good (and whilst most people won"t know that, people involved in the financial sector will.)"
