Monkeys, thought I would start this thread for us. I figured it would be easier for there to be separate threads for each firm doing FT recruiting so we don't have to go to the FT thread that's too long (because who wants to scroll to the bottom?).
Anyone hear back yet from Gugg or have an idea of when to expect anything from them?

how important is networking
Curious too
No idea but I hope not very. Only talked to a post-MBA associate there and it sounds like (based on everything else I’ve read here) they may not be the most helpful/influential lol
Don’t let the echo chamber of 1-2 year analysts on here fool you into thinking that MBA associates don’t carry weight. Associates and VPs, in general, do a huge amount of the lifting for recruiting.
I heard they start reviewing apps in early august and interviews will be happening by mid august
Source?
I reached out to a recruiter
also check your Guggenheim portal, it should say under review, you haven't heard anything back yet like an invite right?
Just saw somebody in MM say they were invited to an interview but idk if NY has been invited yet
For Gugg? Wdym you “saw them in MM”?
I’m assuming gugg MM offices ie chicago, Atlanta
NY will be reviewing resumes this week. Source: recruiter
.
For which office (and source?)?
Recruiter and NYC
you know what time?
Anyone hear back?
Any update on this? Has anyone gotten first rounds yet?
No update on my end either
Super day invites should be coming out this week. Tentative for Aug 12.
What’s your source? Just curious.
Networked with a couple people at the firm
Is there a first round before super or just straight to super
Is there even a hirevue? Or resume drop to super lmao
First step is a 45 minute written assessment……. This is new.
Yea I wonder what we write about
invites are out?
When did this drop?
This for NY or just Chicago?
Chicago for me
NY based recruiter emailed me today. Rolling out the interviews today on rolling basis
Do you know if they will be 1st rounds or superdays?
Extremely disappointed tbh to not get the written assessment. At a low BB/ networked with a specific group's VP, Associate, and Analyst.
If we didn't get the assessment does that mean we're canned?
Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but as far as I've read on here, the assessments only went out to non-NY offices. I'm still holding out hope.
Yeah man I've talked to a couple guys, had pretty good conversations, and haven't gotten anything either
The day's not over men. Hold the line
.
Anybody else get super days for NYC? Saw someone said they are out before he deleted the comment.
i think from email i received i believe its a rolling basis and they might not be doing it all in one day. I also didnt receive anything and thought I was in
Deleted
How is that possible if the writing assignment just came out today sounds like cap lol
I think the writing is for MM in Chicago
I also got SD invite. Any idea on importance of networking and or how tech heavy interviews are?
This is interesting... so resume drop straight to SD?
Did you network to get SD?
No Networking, just cold apply
.
When are yalls superdays? Im curious if its rolling.
Superdays at Gugg are usually not your typical superday from what I've heard. It's usually a technical interview in the morning and if you do well on that then they pass you through to what is typically a superday (multiple behavioral interviews) in the afternoon. You can easily be rejected after the technical round and not make it to the "superday" portion
I've heard that as well.
.
Do you know what time in the afternoon they let you know (roughly)?
If you did first round in the morning, you should know about next round by noon. I found out I got the offer night of the superday. But this was last year for SA 2021, so idk if it's the same for this context
got superday invite today
what time was it sent to you and for ny?
8/5 evening and yes NYC generalist
Is your sd on Thursday (8/12)?
Anybody know how many seats they are trying to fill for NY office vs. how many in SD
Following
Anyone know anything about this Written Assessment?
Following
How did everyone feel about the written assessment?
Did anybody get the email w the times and dates for who they are meeting on superday yet?
Chi or NY?
Anyone hear back after email response interview for chicago?
nope
...
Has anyone heard back yet?
How did everyone think morning technicals went?
tough..
yeah tough, also does anybody know what the lunch hour is when we hear back about going to (or not) behaviorals? I'm just sitting by my phone all afternoon
Agreed, got right into the difficult problems. No softballs.
Did you get a call yet?
Anyone know when technicals end and we can expect an answer?
I think they were all early this morning right? They said we would hear back during the lunch hour but I don’t know if anybody has heard back yet
Just got NYC IBD superday rejection email. I bungled the last interview question (tougher one) so not a surprise though interviewer did ask to stay in touch. Oh well.
Anyone else think LBO case at the end was tough ?
Did offers go out ytd
Wondering too. My superday was yesterday as well but it was for a lateral position. The recruiter mentioned that they would get back within a week but I figured that would be too long.
Anybody hear back for MM Chicago after writing assessment?
yeah dinged
Does anyone know if offers went out for NY?
-cleared-
same - as of morning 8/16, no news. will add when i have heard
anyone know if NY is wrapped up or if there will be another wave?
had SD last week and got an offer (NY). Think there will be another wave, not sure
