I did an online behavioral test for an internship and I got an email saying "We regret to inform you that you have not been successful in achieving the minimum benchmark required to pass the online assessment and we are unable to progress your application on this occasion". First time doing one of these tests so was unsure if they wanted the "play it safe" or "take leadership" answer for each question.
Is this the end of the line for me? Can recommendations and networking still get me to the next stage? Should I submit a new application with a different email?
Its the end of the line unless you know an MD or something. But don't let it get you down there are plenty of other banks out there and lots of them don't even have those stupid online tests lol
fuck man
first time doing one of these things and thought I aced
Wait until you apply to JPM and they have you virtually fill up balloons as large as you are comfortable with...idk if they still do this but when I was recruiting 2 years ago that stood out as the weirdest online test. Obviously they are trying to "measure" risk tolerance by seeing how close to popping the balloon you will go...but honestly it is so stupid. Don't worry about these tests just network a lot, focus on banks that do OCR at your school because they might just come do first round interviews at your campus without bothering with the tests if you go to a target
When did you finish the test? I did it about a week ago and nothing since
did it last night
sounds like you're in the clear, I got notified literally 12 hrs later I failed
Damn that's rough no clue how they grade these though
These things are a waste of time
I took more of a "do what must be done" route
that's what I did too, I don't even know how I failed this thing
I thought no one actually fails
I'd just submit another application with a different email
that's what I was thinking, since HR hasn't actually seen my application yet, this was all automatic
do you think they'll blacklist me? Or is there no risk in trying.
I did it a couple of years ago and got to the AC the second time around - I don't think they knew
