Just did superday for Analyst IB for an MM bank. They're only seeking to hire one analyst to the group as its a regional office and a smaller team. Curious if anyone knows how many people they would typically interview for a Super Day if there is only one spot available.

Superdays would bring in 12-15 people for 3-4 spots
I used to work in a regional office for a middle-of-the-road MM bank. When we ran a process for 2 FT analyst spots, we had ~40 candidates who reached the phone screen round, and more applicants that did not make the screen. We narrowed it down to ~20 for first round interviews and then it progressed from there.
Any idea how many candidates you were looking at by the final round when deciding those 2 offers?
Yeah the other comments are similar to ours. Usually 2-3 people per spot. Usually comes down to culture fit assuming they interviewed well.
Probably like 6-9 people in the superday round
In my experience for experienced or lateral hires looking to fill 1 or 2 positions its been 4-6 candidates that make it to the superday.
