my (chinese) friend interned for lehman brothers in new york last summer, but by some weird visa issue that was specific to her situation, she wasnt able to get hired full time. she eventually found a job with bank of america, investment banking division.
she wasnt that happy because lehman is (or, i should say, WAS) a bulge bracket bank, while boa is a commercial bank with a (small) investment bank division.
but today (boa taking over merril lynch and lehman brothers filing for bankruptcy) i bet she's happy things worked out the way they did.
i, incidentally, also applied to a job a lehman brothers. the only interview that really went well was the one i had with the "financial institutions group," basically the group that is in the thick of this whole subprime mess. so glad i didnt get hired.
