Recruiting at Bowles Hollowell Conner & Co.
By: John J. Gabarro, Herminia M. Ibarra, John P. Kotter and Andrew P. Burtis
Abstract
Examines the recruiting process of Bowles Hollowell Conner & Co. (BHC), an investment banking firm known for its work with middle market companies. Specifically, presents a profile of the firm and its recruiting process and then examines that process through the firm's recruiting efforts at Harvard Business School (HBS). Includes the resumes of 17 second-year HBS students who sought interviews for an associate position with BHC and raises the issue of how interview selections were made from those resumes.
