All i know is it's a 2 day program in person at blackstone that you need to interview for
i just applied yesterday and did the pymetrics, and thought i did ok (really good on the first 9 games medicore on 2-3).
Also any insights on the turnaround periods from pymetrics to interview?

The Blackstone Future Leaders Program is a 2-day program held in NYC designed for sophomore women. It typically requires an application and an interview process, and candidates are also required to complete the pymetrics games as part of the application.
From previous discussions on WSO, the pymetrics results are valid for six months and are often used across multiple firms that require them. Candidates have shared mixed experiences regarding the turnaround time from pymetrics to interview invitations. Some reported hearing back within a few days, while others experienced a longer wait. It’s important to stay patient and keep an eye on your email for updates.
Good luck with your application!

Is pymetrics auto? Have a 4.0 at a target + decent experience and haven't heard anything. Applied yesterday.
I think so I got the games a day after I applied, then video like 40 minutes after I did games
Did pymetrics on Friday 8/29 and received the hirevue this morning and have 2 days to do it.
Same, did pymetrics yesterday and received the digital interview
yeah just did the digital interview. lwk seeing this, i think everyone got the digital interview haha
How was interview? Just behavioral ?
For mine, there were 3 questions total: 2 behavioral and 1 question about alternative investing
Any chance you know how long you have to prep and answer
3 minutes and then it automatically starts recording after that. It was kind of stressful lmao
what were your questions
Just got an email inviting for the Spotlight Webinar, anyone know if it's selective? Did both plymetrics
When did you finish the interview part?
Yesterday morning
Same - I got before I did the interview just finsihed it this morning
what were your interview questions
Anyone know the turnaround after completing all the things
idt it is selective. let's wait and see
I did terribly on the interview (at least that's what I thought), but I got invited to both seminars the next day. So I'm not sure how selective the program is. What will we learn from this, and will we meet people to help us during future applications?
seminar def is not selective. they have to be selective for in person session bc they cant have too many people populate their office
what were the exact hirevue questions people got
.
one day
.
how long were the interview questions? 1m per or 2?
3 min per question
what questions did people get in the hirevue?
Hey I just got the pymetrics invite, what can I expect?
have you done it yet?
yup it's 12 logic/puzzle games and it gives you a little report at the end of your top 3 traits
I finished both games and interview a couple days ago, has anyone heard back from them yet?
Was your interview over Zoom? Or just the digital interview?
kinda weird that decisions arent out considering the first session is in less than a month atp
I think we should get decisions this week or next week. Last year people got decisions on 10/16.
I know a couple mates who received acceptances 2 hours ago
Do the responses come out on a rolling basis?
I hope so because I haven't heard back from them 😂
