I really dont know where you get your information from. In general in a BB Bank, HRs role is to select candidates and not to put CV books together so that every analyst can look at them. Analysts dont get any say for the most part in regard to recruiting newbies. It is essentially job of Associates and those higher up. At smaller places, HR teams are small, often only 1 person. There, the actual teams have to get involved in selecting candidates. These would be boutiques, AM firms and likes.

This forum is monitored by HR at major banks. I am sure they would appreciate your description of their work, Doloris Hiatchi. I work in a BB American bank and I can tell you that generally you are wrong.
Might sound as an easy question, but anyways: I want to get into S&T, tho it seems a bit impossible at the moment. I have two options for summer internships: Citibank (Corporate Banking Division) & Deloitte (Corporate Finance Advisory), both in Romania. The money at Deloitte is considerably better, what do u reckon?
Regarding Citi London - did the SHL test and still haven’t heard of them (applied for S&T)

I can confirm that JPM definately do the CV book thing.

apps are screened before the test!It could be that they hire a generic company to go trawl through all of the initial applications and only give the tests out to those who meet the minimum criteria. If the applicant is successful at the tests then their application is screened by the HR, who then hand out ACs (note for S&T internships, Citi doesn't conduct 1st round interbiews) to the most suitable candidates.
So it is possible to get rejected after getting past the testing stage.

For interns too?
So being called to interview is quite something? :)
