Process: App→Video interview→Insight event
Bank of America runs distinct freshman and sophomore leadership programmes by division, with the Global Markets track historically opening earliest. Firms rarely publish an exact opening date for these programmes and rename them between cycles. Treat the window as the well-established pattern and confirm on the firm's own careers page before you rely on it.

Are you eligible?

Check your year group

Insight Program programmes are normally aimed at students in their first or second year, which for the 2027 cycle means graduating in 2029. This listing went up in September 2026, which in this recruiting calendar is the 2027 cycle.

When do you expect to graduate?

A year group is a convention, not a rule. The wording on the employer's own listing decides it.

How to prepare for this one

Insight programmes screen on motivation and awareness more than technical depth, but the online tests and the recorded interview still filter hard.

Lev holds up a neat card at the start of a corridor leading to a door marked why us. Before the door stand a sieve machine marked tests and a lens box marked recorded, and an arrow marked after these points on to the door. — Motivation is what the door asks about. Two machines ask first.
