Relax bro we’re not dinged yet, we’ll get rejected in September.

For now we just focus on the EB rejections.

 

Friend of mine in financing said Sept/Oct is when they started coming in for the 2022/2023 SA class

 

I believe they're sent in waves and often sent as one unit instead of separate HV invitations. 

My friend had his AM and S&T hirevues sent out together in one go instead of separately, so I wouldn't worry just yet. 

 

Are they sent in waves / batches?

HR said they were starting to look at applications as of Wednesday for IBD and FICC but not sure whether they continue sending out HVs until later in the year. 

Anyone with experience of this, please chime in!

What does the application status say on the GS portal for those who did the HV?

 

Does everyone get the 'under consideration' status? Or have some ppl received something else (e.g application received)?

 

Expecting ACs to be come out later today? ,
Asked a couple friends who did it last year and they also heard back ~2 weeks after HV.

 

Depends on division. For IBD it was 2 weeks, however for S&T first AC came out 3 weeks after HV last year.

Same here. Don’t know anybody for classics who had it or has it scheduled. Only financing but they received a different invite mail

 

Keeping thread alive. Do you reckon all the AC invites were sent out and from that invite list they do 3 ACs?

 

I'm in the same boat. I heard its c.2 weeks for good news, but if bad news then it takes a while

 

Ignore title. I'm at GS, was in your position last year. Had same-day indications of offer (very positive verbal feedback), then contract after 2 months lol

 

So am i right in saying it took 2 months before you got any feedback? Did HR not call you to inform you of the offer in advance of the contract arriving?

 

Received email that will get AC in these 2 weeks but haven’t heard, anyone in same boat ??

 

Do you reckon that anybody who failed to receive an email for a yet-to-be-scheduled AC is likely to be rejected??

 

IB financing is apparently out but heard nothing for classic. Apparently not everyone has had their AC scheduled for IB classic so not sure if they will give offers out later or in the next couple days.

 

Is still someone interviewing? Otherwise they should be calling people soon I would say. Let’s hope we all get positive news guys, fingers crossed🤞

 

Most Financing offers took about 10 days ~ 2 weeks to come through, Classic should hear back this week

 

Yeah I know that there were people who still interviewed last week, but haven’t heard of anyone still interviewing this week so I expect feedback around Wednesday unless someone here confirms interviews are still going on

 

I did Goldman Superday for financing on the 25th of October but have yet to hear back. Does that mean I am on hold or is a rejection incoming? Have people heard back for financing?

 

Looks like only two reported offers so far:

Nordic who interviewed last Tues+Thurs and had an exploding offer

French who interviewed 31 Oct - no exploding offer

Don't know if any offers for UK people are out yet

 

Wouldn't give up hope yet. Certainly more offers coming next week (not a lot of offers publicised). Good luck to us.
