I did it last year. If I remember correctly it was just resume and GPA.
Can you share what is on your resume that time? I just want to know how competitive I am
4.0 & a Fintech Internship. Maybe the investment banking club at my school I can’t remember. Non target btw.
Do we have to submit a transcript too? Because I'm under a process of appealing an A- right now.
I don't think so. There are 2 questions and resume, but they do ask for your GPA in a separate section
Do you get an automatic superday?
Hi, I am also applying this year! I am also curious about the process and really want to ask if there is an interview or not? Also, what is the possible acceptance rate of this event? (Is it the same as the virtual insights program where basically everyone gets in huh)
Different than the virtual as this event includes a weekend trip to an office so acceptance rate is much more competitive
Thanks! Can I ask are you a previous year participant? Is there any interview required for this program?
Do you know if they will cover the trip, I'm in LA and that's not one of the offices.
Anyone get response yet?
Same, bump
Does anybody have any info if they will use HireVues or hold any interviews??? Thanks a lot in advance for any input.
No interviews, expect to hear back early August
Thought last year had hirevue?
Anyone get the "We have received your application and it is under review." email today? Applied a while ago so assuming they are starting to look at apps.
Yup
Yeah got one as well. Was wondering if you guys are coffee chatting/ if it is relevant for this
Any news on the program??
I haven’t heard back
You guys will hear back within 2 weeks.
does anyone see an error on the portal when they click their application?
I think it's probs just cus the site isn't maintained fully, but you can just click home and get to the normal page
Anyone else have "profile 94% complete" and don't know how to get it to 100? I filled out every profile box but not sure what else they want.
Did anybody who applied for this program previously take part in another program?
I did the insights series if that counts
Same. So, no emails yet?
has anyone heard back? it's been over two weeks. if we didn't hear anything, did we get rejected?
commenting for updates. Haven't heard back yet. Diversity + semi-target
Probably results released today or this week
anyone else anxiously waiting for the decisions to be released. this sounds like an amazing opportunity and I’m wishing everybody the best of luck.
Any updates?
I know ~15 people who applied none of us have heard back
Really leaving us all hanging
Semi-reliable source said expect tmr
what time?
does anyone know how many people they take?
I haven’t seen an exact number but I’ve heard it’s pretty competitive.
Bump, anyone heard back?
Negative
damn. can’t believe goldman forgot about this program.

Received results 20 minutes ago
Anyone non-diversity get it?
got IB
Does anyone else's say under review and "Error" if they click on it. Does that mean I didn't get in? lolz
Got into AM!
congrats
Same!
Got in Asset Management, my friends found out about Wealth management 30 minutes before me tho. I think decisions are rolling!
Omg thanks for posting this! Did you guys just get an email or did you check the GS events portal?
Ok so like 10 minutes after I found out she got in(I still didn’t get an email) I logged into my portal and looked under “provide additional data” and it said RSVP for the program. Like 15 minutes after that they sent me an email. Also in my portal it says still under review.
anyone know if there were guaranteed SDs for this program in the past?
Yes you get a superday. Return rate is very high. You have to be a retard to fuck this up if you got GS EL IB for NY
what about s&t
do you know if its HV to SD or do you just get a guaranteed SD?
How do you know if you get NYC and not other city? or is it for nyc only
Can anyone give me the link to the portal? I don’t know why I couldn’t see any application for this program on my student portal?

did you get an email about getting in?
How selective is the program? Acceptance rate?
pretty selective, they fly you out for the in-person portion so not too many ppl
Is anyone still getting decisions now
did anyone get in for ib yet?
yes 1 hr ago
hi can you pls give any recommendations on the application process? Did they require an interview? Any tips would be helpful. Thank you!
did anyone get a confirmation email once they rsvped? i didn't but it's in my portal for "upcoming events" after completing the form
I didn’t get either. Received email invitation, filled out form, and no confirmation email and my gs site says under review Lol
Yeah, same with me.
What’s the website to login? I can’t find it
thank you
same
Have any of your portals updated, I got into WM and filled out information but still says under review?
WM here too, but i think its universal that the portal says under review for everyone but as long as you got the email and filled out the commitment you should be fine
hi can you pls give any recommendations on the application process and tips for the essays? Thank you!
Has anyone gotten in for operations, risk or global compliance yet?
Same spot — still waiting on two of those. I think operations might be out tho
What’s the website to login? Cant find it at all
I didn't get an email indicating anything; does that mean I'm rejected?
Portal still says "under review," ugh
how good is this program? how competitive/what do you get out of it? I got in for ib
Superday and a trip
Do you also get the same for risk management? That is what I got into. Do you at least get an interview offer?
I got into AM. Thoughts on emailing to switch into S&T/IB?
wouldn't recommend doing that
Why not?
can you pls tell how long were your essay responses and if there was an interview?
hi can you pls give any recommendations on the application process? Thank you!
Anyone else non-diversity get IB?
Are you target or non target?
Target but I got rejected
yes
nice bro! btw, do we know which city we got selected to?
Does anyone know how competitive/useful this program is? Like what's the acceptance rate?
Low, bc people get super days and all-expense-paid trips out of it.
Do you know what the SA offer rate is like at these types of superdays?
Can someone rank the various branches
The branches are Asset Management, Controllers, Engineering, FICC and Equities (Sales and Trading), Global Compliance, Investment Banking, Operations, Risk, and Wealth Management. I would imagine the top is IB, and the second place is Asset Management, Engineering, and FICC and Equities (Sales and Trading). Third is Wealth Management. Last is Controllers, Global Compliance, Operations, and Risk.
Did anyone hear back from the program after getting in at all? I didn’t for investment banking.
did not either for ficc
I have heard nothing back either for IB...
Look on their portal, and they changed it to RSVP - Yes. You'll hear back probably closer to October.
Yeah I just saw that too. Did you get in for IB?
is goldman usually this unresponsive over this program? i thought this was a special program not a forgotten one
They sent out kick off session information a while ago, is that what you’re referring to?
if you get into global compliance what are chances you can still recruit for ib
i attended the kickoff event and they said that there isn’t a different application process for the participants in this program. Does this mean there are no longer super days granted through this program?
I also have this question
Has anyone in ELS for IB heard from the mentor?
Nope
