  "account": "Apollo is delaying its junior talent recruiting cycle again, prompting the industry to reconsider its chaotic ritual. This follows last year's delay, which helped slow down private equity's recruiting process. Apollo's 2028 associate class will not be recruited during the current calendar year, according to an email obtained by Business Insider. The firm stated it will wait until candidates who began their investment banking careers over the summer have completed one full year of professional experience.",
  "summary": "Apollo slowed down private equity's controversial investment banker recruiting process last year, and now, it's looking to do so again.",
