uh..they said two for me but i have not gotten anything back from them. So i was just wondering if I can see if I am on the waitlist or got dinged

 

from my understanding BB call you back within the same day or the next if they really like you. If they have suspicions they will play wait and see. Chances are if you haven't gotten a call you didn't get it.

 

^^ Agreed, of the two BB's I interviewed with, I got one and not the other. I emailed my interviewer an hour after to follow up & and he responded with an call/offer. The other I did the same; didn't hear back for 5 days with a ding. I think its a good rule of thumb that if you didn't hear by the end of the night, you didn't get. But there's always exceptions.

how about they gave you a call but said "the decision process is not yet finalized, lets keep in touch within these 2 weeks" ?

and some of the other candidates did not get this call ..

 

No worries. Citi LA is really a crappy office on the west coast.

CS LA/SF UBS LA/SF GS LA/SF Jefferies LA HLHZ LA (M&A, FRG) Moelis LA JPM SF BAML LA Imperial Capital LA MS LA/Menlo Park/SF BarCap LA Lazard LA/SF WF LA (legacy Barrington Associates) /SF Piper Jaffray SF DB SF Harris Williams SF

If you can get an offer from any of the above offices, don't worry about Citi LA. (no exit opps, no deal flow, bad analyst experience)
