Goldman Sachs Undergraduate Camp/Pride Summit/Women's Event 2018

I figured I would make a thread for everybody applying to Goldman's spring events. I just got my HireVue request for the undergraduate camp. Let me know how your processes go!

It's definitely more accepting today than it ever has been before, but there are still many in the industry who will definitely look down on you your entire career. You legitimately have to be one of the best to be respected as someone who is LGBTQ or a woman. I think you'd be crazy not to have respect for the under represented making it in this field.

That said, I'm still against hiring programs specifically targeting these groups- I think we can work to remove bias without making more bias, but that's just my opinion.

 

Went to the Undergraduate Camp event in Irving, Texas last year. Applied for the New York City event, but got stuck in Irving and didn't really get to meet many Investment Bankers there (they only have Real Estate IB group there, and only we only got to speak with one analyst from the group throughout the entire event). It seemed like they were really pushing us towards back office and technology roles. Really emphasized the whole "Goldman isn't just for finance people". Seemed like a convenient way to keep us all at the back of the bus, but I digress. I got the invitation on April 28th. It was actually pretty selective, and they only took 300 out of 6000 applicants. Nonetheless, I don't think the event was very valuable. Put it on my resume, and didn't even get an invitation for an IBD Summer Analyst hireview with Goldman.

 

Nope coz my "date assigned" has been changing all the time to today's date...I mean, if today's March 1, it changes to March 1, if today's Feb 28, it's Feb 28...

 

Does anyone know when we should be hearing back?

Also, how competitive is this program, and how important is GPA specifically? Do you think there is a cutoff, or the higher the better?

 

For some reason, when trying to open my application page for the Women's Leadership Camp, I get an error ("An error has occurred, page not found").

Does anyone else experience the same problem?

It used to work fine a few days ago.

the fact that they are taking so long to get back is very frustrating, considering we are all students who would have to make academic and work changes to fly across the country for this conference. they clearly know who they want and don't want from target schools and gpas as the interview question they used was such a lightweight question. just rip off the band-aid and make the cuts

 

Congrats!! Still waiting to hear back from NY. What time did you get the invite and is it for April 12-13 as well?

 

hey deshaw do you think it is better to attend the undergraduate camp or women's summit? as I am still waiting to hear back from the undergraduate camp that is not till later than the women summit. thanks!

 

Same thing happened to me freshman year, and I was also strong and from target. I reapplied this year and got in, so don't get discouraged because they are probably mainly looking for sophomores for that year's summer recruiting. I'd definitely keep networking and just apply again next year; you'll be stronger next year than your peers since you applied this year and your name is on their radar.

 

Same here. Freshman from target school with 4.0 GPA.

Thanks for the encouragement, alevy396. Will definitely reapply next year.

Hey, I just got an invite for Hirevue for the 2018 UG Camp. Is there any chance you could tell me what they asked in the Hirevue interviews? Nervous they are going to ask an unexpected question.

Thanks!

I applied in the last week of the deadline, honestly wasn't expecting anything because I thought it was already too late. So I am surprised they extended a Hirevue interview.

When did you apply for it?

 

I just finished it. My question was very simple, it was the classic "why finance and why are you interested in it"

Its literally only 1 question.

 

Congrats!

When was your Hirevue interview? Did you receive a Hirevue Interview in the last weeks of April as well or did you apply earlier?

I haven't heard anything yet.

 

I think they are waiting until around May 1 to send out all the emails because the email I received gave us until April 30 to reply back confirming attendance.

 

Nope, they will probably come out tomorrow since people that received acceptances have until the end of today to RSVP

 

yes but I'm having trouble with the street address portion because it won't let me type of the whole street - I'm guessing there's a character limit

 

I checked my portal and it says error when I got the event page but my application says "under review". I got a blank email also

My Brother. My Captain. My King.
 

yes the person said to abbreviate your address as there's a character limit but I just put it in the rush justification and the person said it's fine
