Overview

Our Mission Bridge to Capital Markets is a volunteer organization that strives to help top finance students at non-target universities obtain coveted positions in capital markets and asset management. We aim to bridge the gap between the top business students and the top Canadian financial institutions, fostering a virtuous cycle of recruitment over time. Our Story After actively participating in the interview process at leading Canadian financial institutions (both as a candidate and as an interviewer), our founder witnessed the inequities that separate the top recruiting universities from the others. While providing advice to finance students of Eastern Canadian universities on an 'ad hoc' basis, he saw an opportunity to address the needs of students from multiple universities across the region, which resulted in the creation of Bridge to Capital Markets. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our Services 1) Modular Sessions Bridge to CM delivers targeted preparatory information and guidance to students through four on-campus classroom sessions, operating through a “student associate model.” 2) Candidate Screening After delivering training sessions and providing candidates with constructive feedback, candidates submit application packages to Bridge to CM for screening. 3) Consolidated Recruiting Selected candidates are invited to a centralized recruiting event, which brings together talent from across the region to meet and interview with corporate participants from top Canadian financial institutions.
