Is it appropriate to leverage Super Days

From reading WSO it seems that once you move on to a super day for one bank, other banks are more likely to invite you to their super days.

Is it appropriate to do this? If so, should you only do it with banks of similar size? For example, I know that if you were to mention to a boutique that you had a super day at GS they would be less likely to invite you to super say.

And if this is a effective way to speed up/receive more super day invitations, what is the best way to go about letting other banks (that you have been in contact with) know that you have been invited to a super day?

 

On a similar note; when asked about what other banks I am talking to, should I only mention banks of the same size? Even if I may be looking at banks bigger and/or smaller than them?

Only mention banks that are equal to or less than in terms of size. For example, if you answer the "Why MM banking?" question with something involving lean deal teams, more client interaction, more interaction with senior bankers, etc. and then mention that you are interviewing at BBs, you may come off as disingenuous. Granted, that is completely silly since 99% of people happily interview with any reputable bank that gives them the chance to.

 

It is very much possible to leverage a superday and I would actually say you should leverage at superday level vs. offer because a lot of firms give you very short timelines to accept offer where it wouldn't really be possible to accelerate a process at another firm. The way I've gone about this is to just subtly inform the person you're most in touch with at that other firm about the superday and just re-express that you are more interested in their firm
