Nope- have you? What division did you apply for?
investment banking! you?
I haven't heard a thing either. I wonder if they're still doing it lol
are you both from target schools?
Yup i am, and I did IB too - I think the program starts relatively soon so I'm a little worried that nothing has been sent out
i called and they said everyone should be hearing back by next week
Has anybody heard anything yet?
Just got accepted. Interviews in July....
Got in too!
How do you feel about the potential of interviewing early and not knowing your other options?
I have a superday tomorrow and my mentality is just that I hope to get recruiting done with
was it an email/ did you guys do a lot of networking there
Yep it was an email. Didn't do much networking. Does anyone know if it's accelerated in terms of a first round interview or straight to superday?
Well this fucking blows lol. I went to their Citi Discovery Day and figured I'd have a decent shot of getting in EID since it wasn't well advertised. Probably didn't get in because of my school but that's ok because I think I have a much better shot at the traditional app (Strong resume but non-target). Hopefully they're not done sending acceptance emails.
Ivy_Student you go straight to the superday. They'll pair you with a mentor and some homework to do for the time being and then you will go straight to the final round in july. Keep in mind that there is also a case study and potentially a group activity. Where is your superday at today?
thanks for the info. goldman, blew it.
any source on that info?
I went to Citi in March
Does anyone know more exact dates for the superdays? My mentor said he would recommend me for the next round but he wasn't clear on the next steps
quixoticelixer is this for FT 2018?
No it's for SA 2018
I did this for S&T and have a superday in a few weeks
Delete
If you get accepted to the Early ID process, you get an automatic superday, whether it be in July or August (depending on when your mentor thinks you are ready).
This sounds like an asteroid detection program. We still remember your sacrifice, Bruce Willis.
Any advice on how one should prepare for the case study?
anyone from IB already know when their superday is?
I don't have an email confirmation yet but my mentor verbally told me "if I got one" it would be on July 27th
I got an email last week saying I should do a "phone screening" interview for CMO? Did anybody get that? Wasn't the program designed to let us surpass the first interview and go directly to the super day?
Yep I also got that. I'm surprised as well we still have to do a phone screening, I guess CMO does things differently from IB. Did you get your date for the phone call yet?
Yeah, early next week. I am trying to finish the interview process as quickly as possible to be honest.
Have to do a phone screen for ib too
Has anyone heard back from Citi for IB phone screens then?
Received an email from HR indicating that I have a 1st round phone interview next week. Thought Early ID people go straight to superday, but guess not...
Any news from HR on when your 1st round phone interview is? Earliest times are on Monday and haven't heard anything yet
I wouldn't worry too much about it, the earliest times for CMO were this past Tuesday and HR didn't get back to me until Wednesday. I did reach out to HR with a quick email beforehand, you could do the same if you want
Have you guys had a number of mock interviews with your mentor(s) or is it suppose to be just one?
I just had one, prior to him recommending me to into the accelerated process.
Anybody already have their phone interview?
I did. I thought it was alright. How was it for u?
Did they ask technicals?
It went well. My interviewer said he does not really know the timeline - but said they would get back to us soon. Did your interviewer give more details about superday or when we will hear about Superday etc...?
what is this program? is it for urm/women?
.
All diversity. This is from the program description: "Women/LGBTQ/veteran/disabled/underrepresented minority students"
Not for diversity, and I think the number the recruiter mentioned in the initial phone call was 20 positions
.
Has anyone from TTS gotten a notification about the super day following the phone screening?
Did people start getting notifications about super day already?
Anybody get an email to apply from the Citi Graduate Recruitment Team?
To apply for what?
The 2018 IB Summer Analyst position.
Anyone receive superday info?
They asked you to apply to something that you already are doing an interview for?
Wait are you doing the Early ID program - did you already have an interview?
Yes, I am doing the EID Program. Following the first round interview for Investment Banking, I received an email the next day stating they would like me to apply for the position.
does that mean you pass the first round? Any news for EID Markets?
Phone interviews end this week, so will probably hear back monday. Superdays will be july 27th or august 3, not everyone gets superdays either
Got superday invite for CMO, next thursday
Wait. Did you get it today or like the day after your interview? if you don't mind me asking.
Got it today morning, there's a prep call for selected candidates on Monday to go over scheduling
.
no, it is pretty weird. first superday is on thursday. so you would expect us to know by now if we made it. anyone else doing IBD, did you hear back??
Also, I received an email from Citi suggesting me to apply for 2018summer analyst position in IBD. Is that related to Early ID? I feel like that was just an email to all applicants and not just to EID people. Do we need to apply separately from EID?
Did S&T - did not hear back yet.
I would think the new email from Citi is a mass email to candidates and not related to EID
.
Not yet, they should be sending them out some time today though, let's see
No words? Did anyone hear back?
.
Ahaha, I'm glad we're all in this together. I've been alternating between checking my email and this thread
fuck, this shit is so stressful
Do banks often declare results at night?
Not yet, hopefully will get it later today.
So..
Did anyone have superday today? How did it go?
Got the CMO offer just now
Are they giving IB offers out yet?
Does anyone know if there's another superday this week? If we haven't gotten emails yet, does this mean we're rejected? Can we apply again during OCR?
