Did you get one for NY? i got one for Boston but imnt interested in Boston office

 

Got one for CLE, no networking/non div semitarget. Looks like they have initial phone calls or screens as first rounds unless you networked which gets you straight to SD.

Didn't network at all and applied only to Chicago and NYC. Received a group preference for CHI but apparently the only group available there is financial sponsors, so I don't even really get to pick lol. Non-diversity non-target.

 

Lol same here, i applied to NYC and Boston, but networked heavily for NYC and only got Boston. This is stupid

 

Received NYC group preference survey 5 mins ago. Non-target non-diversity no networking

 

Do you know what the good groups of Keybanc are in NYC? I honestly have no clue don't even know much about KeyBanc

 

Does anyone else only have five options for coverage group preferences (Corp Banking, DCM, Ind, Public Fin, Energy) for NY? Are these the only coverage groups there? Also does anyone have any insight or corp banking and public fin?

 

Anyone get a first round yet? Got the preference survey for a few offices last week but nothing about interviews yet. 

 

Nope same as you. Don't think we'll hear anything until July 23rd as per the email. Interviews are expected to be conducted last week of July I thought?

 

Anyone know if you can have SD with multiple key groups? Don't know if I should keep up networking or not

 

Yes, you can SD with multiple groups at Key. Keep networking as much as you can. 

 

Anyone get a intro call for Cleveland office? I got the survey but never heard back after....

 

i didnt hear back for ny office after the survey, we should hear back at the end of the month

 

Anyone hear back yet? I know the preference survey said by the 23rd so end of this week. Both CTL and NYC

 

Did first round with 2 groups for Cleveland office (completed both this week). Still have not heard back. Know of one other person in the same boat. Anyone else having a similar experience with the Cleveland office? 

 

Got email yesterday to set up interview for NYC group. Also, had a first round for non NYC group this week and have not heard back. Thought I would have gotten another group from NYC but I guess that is just how it goes.

 

Idk if this happened to everyone or only me but I did my group pref for Boston a while ago and yesterday got an email saying today the first round will come out, but a few hours later I went to go find that email and it wasn't there anymore and I didn't get anything from them today so I'm confused. 

 

Damn received rejection for regional office after doing 1st round 20 mins ago. Hopefully I can still do interview for NYC but seems like Key has so few SA's. Apparently they only like to take 1-3 per group.

 

Intro call is 1st round. It's basically a networking call so actually have questions prepared. I haven't gotten NYC 1st round yet but got the group pref. Did first round for regional office but didn't move on

 

Okay thanks, that clears up some confusion. I did the first round NYC intro call last week and I have not heard back yet. HR told me that superdays would be during the middle of August. 

 

i got the rejection letter for boston as well, NYC not yet so there's hope my application says reviewing

 

Has anyone gotten 1st round for NYC or CTL just trying to gauge where I stand

 

Just checked my portal and it states that my NY application is under preliminary review and my Charlotte one is received. Any insight into if this has any meaning?  

 

Received an email saying my application has moved forward in the process and the division I applied to will review my application this week. If so they will schedule a first round.
