Apply online. Hopefully get a first round which is some behavioral but mostly technical with a case study. Super day is culture fit, small case possibly and no technicals.
any idea on timeline?
What does the case study look like?
Curious on this. Is there one?
Bump
Screening calls came out, it seems like historically there would be an HR screening before first round. Asked contacts there and it seems like usually thats how ppl make it to interviews.
Interesting that they’re out. Application is still open
The person I spoke with said they opened early this year and are still going through everyone’s resumes. But they have started screening calls just to get administrative questions done. Have a friend in a similar position as well.
Anyone hear anything?
Nothing yet, you?

Anything ?

i just got an invite post screening call. one of my buddies said more will be rolled out next week/the week after.
Sick! Congrats and best of luck. Pls keep us updated
Did you network?
Do you guys know how much weight the suited assessments have? Got sent that after applying, but I took the assessments sometime last year and am not really sure if my results are good or not.
same boat

Tbh, excuse my language. I think Suited is just a test to tell that you are not retarded. If you can network and get referrals, i would say that weight much more than suited. Cultural wise seems like their interview emphasis a lot on fit, so throughout the interview they would know, but this ties back into your suited, dont be a dick and dont be dumb and u gonna be fine.
What type of firms are you all at this summer? Boutiques or smaller MMs?
Any update for R1?
Haven’t heard anything yet.
Nothing on my end too.
Same
Just got a first round invite today
Are you at one of their targets?
Non-target but networked
Same here
Recruiter seems nice and said they are still reviewing (likely for the regular apps)
Applying to 2026, is your recruiter Jessica Fox? She seems nice.
Update?
Any updates?
Still yet to hear anything
Same
As far as I know from last year (source: someone from my shop made it to superday) it comes in waves. Seems like HR would schedule a couple folks and add it to calendar and then send out next batch and does the same. Seems like for a smaller shop, it makes a lot of sense. That being said, don’t be discouraged and keep on networking. Other shops will open soon so just cast a wide net as well.
Makes sense. Thanks for the insights.
Update?
nothing on my end yet
Are apps still open? I can’t find them.
Probably closed imo
I think they closed a few days ago
Does anybody have insight into what the supposed case study looks like? Haven't received a first round, but just want to be ready
If you get a first round, they will explicitly tell you in an email.
Anyone got superday?
You had R1?
I thought a lot of folks here had R1. Wanted to know if spd are out and if they would be rolling out more
Anyone here anything?
Seeing the application opened back up. A good sign for those still under review?
Its down again, could be they made the post back up for like offer reasons.
Given what ppl said when they got R1, super day could be this week or next
Was told more R1 invitations were being sent out this week, anything change for anyone?
Had a friend attend superday this week on site. Said decisions will be released next week. Guess its rolling.
What office?
I'm assuming if you haven't gotten R1 by now, you're toast..
Also curious...
Same.
just got offer call, was able to expedite process
Did u have exploding offrrs?
yes, from a similarly ranked mm firm
What office did you get an offer from?
I had a super day this week, but haven’t heard anything so assuming I didn’t get it
Have apps for nyc office already been closed?
following
Have offers already been sent from last week's round of superdays?
I would assume so. I talked to HR last Friday and they said I would get a call on Tuesday - never got one. I talked to them again today and they said the lead recruiter would call me this Friday - assuming this is the formal bump.
what office is this for? or is this the same for all offices?
also, wdym by formal bump? like a rejection? why would they call you to tell you that instead of just sending an email on friday
Update?
Anyone hear back from the latest round of superdays yet?
Anyone interviewing for FT 2025 Associate?
Hey - can you PM me. I am unable to.
does anyone have any insight on the case study??
analyst or associate
Either. Preferably associate but anything helps obviously.
