How hard is it to get into JP, Morgan Stanley or Goldman sachs in UK ? I have applied for a few roles that I seem to have what they are looking for but never get a call.

I can relate, I have applied to countless roles and no interview yet. They might have like a 2% acceptance rate, some internet sources say. Keep going on with a positive mindset, you will get something good soon.

Does anyone have ideas on how to navigate a smaller team environment when everyone’s roles seem to be stretched (hiring for additional people has been taking a while, not sure why). The stress causes some tension and that’s probably not great for the overall morale of the company long-term. I try to ignore and just stay focused on what I need to do yet sometimes proves challenging. I worry it might affect my professional/career growth. Thoughts on this would be helpful, thanks!
