They give it to everyone; I didn’t know you could get dinged after it though - thought everyone got to the interview stage or at least the case study stage.

not sure what you mean by qualified enough, myself and a lot of other people that got offers didn’t have much finance xp prior

 

Yeah I don’t know man, I didn’t have any finance experience and I got the offer last year. Think it’s more about how they can teach and mould you rather than what you already know. But I don’t know. Good luck with recruiting though.

 

Recruiting seems to be slightly tougher this year for the initial rounds than last year, at least from what I have been able to infer. As I didn't even know anyone who didn't get case last year but this year people are getting rejected off CV. 

 

I never got the questionnaire and got a rejection email a few days after applying. I go to a semi target with multiple relevant internships and a 3.5 GPA. Some of my friends from the same school got the questionnaire so it’s possible that they screen you out after a certain GPA.
