PJT Partners graduate schemes
6 open now6 intakes listed, every one read from PJT Partners’s own recruitment system. Last confirmed 12 September 2026.
PJT Partners is "a global advisory-focused investment bank" and its own student job board carries six London roles for 2027. The banking routes are advertised separately by business, so you pick one when you apply: a ten week Summer Analyst internship and a five month January off-cycle Analyst internship, each run once by Strategic Advisory & Restructuring and once by PJT Park Hill Private Capital Solutions. Outside banking there is a Corporate Rotational Programme in two versions, a summer internship and a July full time programme, rotating through PJT's "Finance", "Human Resources" and "Management & Operations" functions.

How PJT Partners recruits
You apply per role. Each London advert carries its own closing date and its own instructions, so applying for a Summer Analyst role does not put you in the pool for the January off-cycle or for the Corporate Rotational Programme. The four banking adverts add a second step outside the application form. PJT says "A required component of the application is completing a Suited Assessment which is linked in the job description", and the adverts describe Suited as an "A.I. powered assessment driven screening tool". You must create the Suited account with the same email address you applied with, and there is no send button at the end: PJT says a "Profile Complete" badge appears once you have finished. The two Corporate Rotational adverts do not list the Suited survey among their requirements, even though the students page presents it as required, so read the advert you are actually applying to. Your CV must be uploaded in PDF format, and on the banking adverts it must include your expected graduation month and year and your grades. Every London advert prints a fixed closing date in its text. PJT does not publish any warning that a role closes early once full, it does not describe rolling review, and it does not publish a reapplication bar.
Every 2027 London advert names its own deadline, and they are not the same. The Summer Analyst role in Strategic Advisory & Restructuring closes by school region, "Sunday 4 October (UK & Other)". The Summer Analyst roles at PJT Park Hill and on the Corporate Rotational Programme close "Sunday 11 October". Both January off-cycle roles close "Sunday 4 October". The July full time Corporate Rotational Programme closes "Sunday 18 October 2026". For the pattern year to year, PJT's own FAQ says of Europe: "Applications for our Summer Analyst Program open in September of the year prior to the program and close in October." Its applicant tracking system records the five 2027 London internship adverts as opening on 1 September 2026, and the July full time Corporate Rotational advert on 4 September 2026.
How the process usually runs
Stages as PJT Partners describes them. Timings vary by programme, so treat this as a guide rather than a commitment.
Worth knowing
- Visa sponsorship is not promised. PJT says it handles "visa sponsorships on a case-by-case basis" and that this "applies to all of our locations".
- Deadlines differ by school region inside one advert. The London Summer Analyst advert for Strategic Advisory & Restructuring lists "Sunday 20 September (France)", "Sunday 27 September (Nordics, Ireland, DACH)", "Sunday 4 October (UK & Other)" and "Sunday 11 October (Spain, Italy)". UK students are on 4 October, a week before the other two London summer roles, and the advert only says so in a list at the very bottom.
- The Summer Analyst programme is for penultimate year students: "penultimate year students who have one academic year left following the intern program". The London summer adverts set the anticipated graduation window as Winter 2027 to Summer 2028. PJT adds that "In Europe, we also welcome recent graduates to apply for an internship."
- The January roles are internships, not graduate jobs, and they do not run in summer. The Strategic Advisory & Restructuring one is "a 5-month programme beginning January 2027 through May 2027", and you need to have graduated "no earlier than June 2026" with a "Graduation date no later than June 2027".
- An off-cycle internship can convert. PJT says "Successful Off-Cycle Analysts will be considered for a Full-Time Analyst return offer pending performance on the job", and the Park Hill advert names that return offer as being for July 2027.
- Both summer internships run ten weeks: "The Summer internship is a 10-week programme which begins with orientation & financial training before interns join their teams."
- The internship is the main way into banking. PJT says "We typically hire a majority of the class from our internship programs. Occasionally we hire additional candidates to fill our Full-Time class", with those separate adverts "posted in early August with interviews in August and September". As of 6 September 2026 there is no London full time banking Analyst advert on the board: the only London full time role is the Corporate Rotational Programme, and the four "2027 Full Time Analyst" adverts are New York and San Francisco.
- Every intern is in scope for a return offer, not a fixed share of them: "everyone is eligible for a full-time offer depending on their performance during the internship".
- PJT calls the internships generalist, "No, these are Generalist Programs", so there is no team placement process once you are in. You still choose a business at application, because Strategic Advisory & Restructuring and PJT Park Hill are advertised as separate London roles.
- The Corporate Rotational Programme is the non banking route. The summer version is for undergraduates and rotates through "two of the following corporate functions"; the July full time version rotates through "all the following corporate functions", requires "Graduation no later than in June 2027" and closes "Sunday 18 October 2026", the latest of the six London deadlines.
- PJT runs campus events on a separate Workday board, and the London ones are tied to named universities with their own earlier deadlines. For the 2027 cycle a Cambridge dinner on "Thursday 15 October" asked for applications by "Sunday 20 September, 6pm BST", open to Cambridge students "in their penultimate or final year of studies, interested in internship opportunities in London". If your university is on that list, the event deadline lands before the job deadline.
