Has anyone heard anything regarding this?
We who got into the west coast insight day got automatic invites to the program bc they usually pay to fly us out, but haven't gotten any info on it yet. So would assume they haven't released anything yet
i did the west coast insight day last year
undergraduate camp ppl got it too I believe
this already started
just got an invite for this!
same here! did you notice how the email said there were 5,000+ applicants? do you know if it is actually as selective as it seems portray? trying to gauge how significant this opportunity is and if it's something potentially putting on the resume. curious to hear any thoughts!
just look at the people who joined and their self intro, regional college and no experience when theyre junior. Im quitting lamo
Just got the email — it seems a lot of ppl got accepted for this summer insight series. Let’s make a chat tho
down!

Down for it ^

let’s make a groupme?
Down
Made a groupme, dm me so I can add y'all!
Can't dm. Can you dm me?
Hi can you dm me? Got in and reached my daily dm limits.
Thanks!
.
Just made a GroupMe, feel free to join from the link below or dm me! Yea you might want to remove all $ from the link.
You're invited to my new group 'Summer Insight' on GroupMe. Click here to join: https://$groupme$.com/$join_group$/$60141366$/$koOy6CfQ$
Also got it and I know several people who did too. I doubt it was too selective
Would be great to make a groupme or something
Can anyone from Goldman Sachs comment on how helpful participating in this is?
Doesn't really mean anything in FT recruiting but definitely could check the box for showing interest.
Is there any benefit to this or should I just put it on and watch tv?
The Insight Series email says it is through Diversity recruiting, yet I am not diversity and do not remember it having any diversity requirements when I applied 5 months ago. Did I miss something?
Did it last summer -- there's no diversity requirement
Down
also got this but honestly not sure how selective it is...
Yeah I'm not sure, they said 5,000 applicants but an accepted amount of people would leverage how selective it is
Does anyone know what the 'Senior Leader Fireside Chats' are? Trying to decide how to best tailor the series. What are the three things you guys are the most interested in?
Can someone please elaborate on "technical interview preparation". Is this preparing us for the technical part of interviews or directed towards Computer Science people? Thanks
they’ll basically prepare you for the technical part of the interview (Accounting, DCF Analysis etc...). they’ll lay out the basics. Honestly think any course (BIWS or WSO) offers a better training for that
But atleast this offers the goldman sachs name
Interested in making a groupme, what do others think about this?
there's already groupme links above
Just got the invite yesterday.
Please add me into the groupchat! Much appreciated 3
Please add me into the groupme! Thanks!
Add me to the GroupMe as well please!
please add me into the GroupMe, thanks!
did anyone get the module 1 email yet? I haven't.
Yes, having that issue:(
I didn't either. Did anyone have problems with the RSVP on the website?
.
anyone know if this program will help lead to an interview or if it’s just informational?
Also interested. Currently, it has just been people at GS talking about how awesome the company is. Been a huge waste of time and have not got any "real" insights
Anyone got the Week 2 email yet? I still haven't received anything... Last week they sent it late too even though they claim to have them be sent every Monday
Same this is some real BS from GS. I emailed HR Tuesday and they said Wednesday they will send it but alas here we are. GS HR is disappointing to say the least
No week 2 email here either wtf..
-
Should I still put the virtual insight series on my resume?
For the Peer Review, is it just other candidates judging each other's resumes? Do y'all think it's worth it?
following up on this, as I am curious to see if this program indeed held weight for SA 2021.... did anyone who is also in this program get hirevue for NYC IBD?
Yes
sophmore or junior?
yep
sophmore or junior?
