Apologies if this is a bad question, but is it possible for people in the same process for a BB SA position to go through different interview paths before the super day? For the sake of simplicity, assume pure non-target process where a university wouldn't be involved at all.
For example, Candidate A goes first round call--->second round call-->super day while Candidate B goes first round call--> super day? Do things like this happen?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, I’ve seen this before especially if the timing is off - if the bank gets a solid candidate at the point where they don’t want to accept any more apps, they might just supercharge her straight to superday.
Definitely. It's common for people to have as little as no calls to even 4 calls before a super day.
