I got asked to complete an online assessment for Barclays after applying to their summer analyst program. Has anyone done this assignment yet, and if so, how long did it take for you to hear back after doing the assessment about if you passed? Also, is the next step in the process a Hirevye, and if so, do they send that out right after the online assessment is done? Thanks

i did it too, and haven't heard back. Not sure what the timeline is, if someone knows pls lmk.
did you end up getting it back yet, and if so how long did it take?
I did it already - no hirevue yet

Did everyone else’s portal status change to “preliminary conversations”? What does this mean
Yeah, my portal status also changed. Idk what it means
did you automatically get an online assessment
Yeah it came the same minute as my confirmation email
I applied and finished the test the day Trackr posted it, haven't heard anything since
i missed the deadline because it landed in my spam what should i do
Did you use .edu email? If so you're cooked. If not, make another account with the .edu email and reapply
Del
In their email it said 5 days (or before the deadline) you can say it was confusing because the deadline is in january sometime
Only have had the online assessment, Trackr says they are on first round - anyone received anything?
nothing here - didn't network much at barc though so not expecting anything
r1 is out, for some schools at least
Had a phone call screening maybe a week after.
Bump
Had a r1 Thurs, haven't heard back, am i dinged?
any info on barclays sf?
Nope. Any other SF banks responded besides DB online assessment?
Nah still waiting on Barclays SF haven't heard back.
Just got rejected yesterday lol
I talked to a banker in SF, he said no R1s have went out from his office. Expecting Jan
Do yk when they’re coming out btw?? Don’t know anyone that has heard anything from the SF office yet.
They said they are gonna do multiple waves of R1s during the discovery call. So this is probably the first wave of screenings
That makes sense. Have you gotten an r1 from them yet?
Has anyone gotten an r1 for the Chicago office yet?
Got a phone screening for equity research. Anyone else? Is this basically a first-round interview?
Did u network?
I also got a phone screening for equity research. The person I talked to said that they are really backed up and recruitment will take a bit
Have you or anyone you know gotten a super day invite yet?
any r1 for s&t yet?
I won't worry as much. I had a phone screening about 2 weeks ago but that is because the person I talked to said he was trying to do his phone screenings before the new year. He said other people at the office are going to wait until after the new year.
What office is this for??
what was the phone screen like?
super chill
Has anyone heard about next round/superdays yet?
Haven’t even had a r1 yet, is it cooked?
Bump
Bump
Keep networking. Pretty sure they do R1s in waves. Last year for example they had a R1 for some candidates in March. Network your ass off and use alumni as much as possible.
I am not sure. But I had my r1 in mid Dec but it was for Barclays credit research and the location is in NYC
Have you received superday invite yet?
what's the phone screening like? is it technical or fully behavioral?
bump
Did you get an email after you finished the assessment? Also, if you have finished it, what does it show you when you click on the link?
My application portal says "Preliminary Conversations"
Anyone get a super day invite for equity research yet?
Have ppl gotten the Superday invite for the end of this month yet? I had my interview and am afraid I may have been passed on.
IB?
Yes
NYC IB?
Yes
have heard spd invites are out from underclassmen
Anybody heard back for SF?
No. Are superday invites out yet? For SF
.,

Do you guys go to targets, non-targets? Diversity program? I’ve spoken to the recruiting captains for my school several times and no one has heard back from a target

i haven't even gotten my r1 yet... tbf i'm also in the process of transferring my application from the nyc to the sf office for pubfin

Bump
Anyone hear back from a recent superday?

Pretty much - got my offer 2 wks ago, with one superday left for my school.
Any update if there is still one superday left?
March 4th was Barclays last Coverage IB NY SPD
Anyone heard back from NYC superday this past week?
Pretty sure R1 should be this week for some non-targets and superdays soon after.
Finally the pain is over :)
