Bain NE R2 Sign Up Link / Mistakenly Invited to Interview

Hey! Has anyone that got an R2 invite after an R1 interview on 8/3 not received the sign-up link? Has anyone received the sign-up link? Did anyone not get an invitation to do an R2 interview? 

I'm a little nervous because it sounds like everyone got an invitation but nobody got the sign-up link, so I'm worried that maybe they sent out interview requests by mistake or something like that. 

My R1 interview was not stellar. My first case was fine and my second case was pretty shitty, which is why i was shocked when i got an R2 invite and now I'm suspicious of it because I haven't been sent an actual sign-up link.

Hey! Don't worry too much and try and give yourself more credit. The chances that they sent the wrong invitation is incredibly slim–it's their job to get these things right!!

I also haven't gotten the sign up link and emailed the recruiter. He got back to me that they are still working on things and will be sending it out in a couple of days.

I feel as though Bain NE scheduled everything in close proximity for both ACI and AC interviews. Now they are just sorting through things. Keep up the hope!
