Based on previous WSO threads, it's not uncommon for there to be a bit of a wait after first-round interviews before hearing back about next steps. Here's what you might consider based on historical data:

  • Patience is Key: Sometimes firms take a while to get back to candidates, especially if there are many applicants.
  • Follow-Up: If it's been over a week, it might be appropriate to send a polite follow-up email to your point of contact to inquire about the status of your application.
  • Networking: Continue to network and reach out to current employees at PJT RSSG to express your interest and possibly gain insights into the timeline.
  • Stay Prepared: In the meantime, keep preparing for potential next-round interviews by reviewing technical questions and practicing your behavioral responses.

Remember, each year can be different, and response times can vary based on a multitude of factors. Keep an eye on the WSO forums, as someone might post an update regarding the 2025 PJT SA RSSG process.
