Student Strategy Insights
- Bay Street recruiting remains heavily concentrated among Osgoode, U of T, and Western students.
- U of T continues to generate the strongest overall placement percentage.
- Strong academic performance alone is insufficient; interview performance remains a critical differentiator.
- Students should avoid drawing conclusions from OCI and in-firm totals alone, as firms intentionally over-interview relative to available positions.
- The Toronto recruit remains significantly larger and more competitive than the Vancouver recruit.
