Is my chance at MS gone?

So I applied to MS and completed the Hirevue a while back but missed the email of where they sent us the assessments to complete within 48 hours. However, I was still able to go back and complete the assessments yesterday. Does that mean my chance at MS is gone? How much emphasis is put on the assessments?

Technical glitch in my HireVue and redid it two weeks after deadline. Had referral from group head and ED and they didn't want to advance me to super day

 

Should MS give the guy another chance since he missed the email because failed to submit the assessment within 48 hours? No, 999/1000 times they shouldn't. Does this provde a useful metric that tells banks anything? No, most likely not. Should banks also ask each applicant if they had a hearty breakfast and went to bed on time?

Ehhhh I get what you're saying, but responsiveness to emails is a really useful metric for predicting Analyst success, probably more so than GPA if I'm honest.

Be excellent to each other, and party on, dudes.
 

I did it two months late but still got invited to superday so I think you're fine? I'd reach out to HR just to double check

 

Eh I mean for that to matter, the same person would have to see both Hirevues...I mean if you have an extra hour during a saturday I'd give it a shot and report back to us if it worked lmao.
