Accidentally had my graduation year wrong on application. How to remedy

This position opened last week and heard they are already interviewing as of now. I applied immediately when it opened.

However, I just realized that I gave the wrong graduation date on the application and think it might be an auto ding. After a week of application, I reached out to HR and she mentioned that she made note of that correction.

What if that I believed my application had already been reviewed? Are there anyway to let HR and analysts/associates/recruiting team on the group to check things again and put me into consideration? (I’m not sure who will filter factors like grad date / if u need visa sponsorship / have u done crime and shit and stuff, don’t know if analysts will also get involved or it’s only HR screening these)

Also, will all the apps be seen by analysts and associates on the team or HR will do initial selection and then analyst/associates if this is not a group that follows school recruiting model

This is a regional office EB, and not SA28 btw

You've already done the most important thing by telling HR, and since she noted the correction, it is very likely attached to your file now.

At most banks, HR or a recruiting coordinator does the first screen for basics such as graduation date, work authorization and location, and analysts or associates usually see only the shortlist, especially outside the formal campus recruiting cycle. So a wrong date is mainly an HR-stage issue, and you have already fixed it there.

If you want to do a little more without overdoing it, a short, polite follow-up email to the same HR contact in a few days, restating your interest and the correct graduation date in one line, is reasonable. If you know anyone in the group, a quick networking chat helps far more than any correction, because a referral can get your resume a second look. Good luck!
