Based on the most helpful WSO content, the turnaround time after a case study or interview can vary significantly depending on the firm and their recruitment process. For example:

  • Goldman Sachs: Response times can range from a few hours to a week or even a month in some cases. It's not uncommon for candidates to follow up after a week if they haven't heard back.
  • Point72: After submitting a case study and completing interviews, some candidates experienced radio silence for up to a month before receiving feedback.
  • McKinsey: Typically takes several days to a week to hear back after progressing to the next round.

A week is a reasonable timeframe to wait before considering a follow-up. If you haven't heard back by then, it might be worth reaching out politely to inquire about the status of your application.

Yes I did. Think the team was just slammed (it was a small MM PE firm)
