Dude I have the same question. Can we apply to two different divisions that open at different time?? I know some open much later and some open pretty early.......

Is there a benefit to applying early? The app says it rolling, but I would like some time to prepare. Any idea recommendations?

 

1st round then super when I interviewed last year. This time though there's no assessments just a Hirevue, so I wonder they're screening applicants.

 

MS opens apps in April, but doesnt usually start interviewing until August / September

Everyone gets a hirevue, the questions may differ

So when you opened the Hirevue it didn't let you begin it? Even though there was an hour left? That's strange

 

i was accelerated in april based on 3 other offers. i just told my coffee chat person i had other offers and they sent me a first round. no alums in the office and no networking

 

Also got a rejection. Go to a target but didn’t network at all so probably partly that. Plus my hirevue was meh

 

Why are some comments saying above that their Handshake says that MS won't sponsor? My Handshake portal says that "Will sponsor a work visa and accepts OPT/CPT" for MS IBD (Locations: LA, SF, Menlo, NY, TX). I'm an international student so not sure about this...

 

Target or non-target? Diversity or non-diversity? Accelerated or exploding offers? How well did your HV go?

 

Anyone else here receive an email saying they got a first round for Menlo Park almost two weeks ago but haven't had their interview scheduled yet?

 

Menlo is having a superday this week. Maybe you'll hear back this week ab First Rounds, then if you pass you'll have the superday later this week. 

 

Sort of a similar situation for me as well... Had my first round and heard back about next steps with the team but didn't receive a scheduling upon providing my availabilities...

 

An analyst told me back in the beginning of April that they started early stages of diversity recruiting (the apps haven’t even opened up then), so I have no idea what the timeline is like.

 

did u guys apply to the sophomore IB one or the regular IB app? im a sophomore going into junior year in the fall and i applied to the sophomore one

 

The sophomore app is for sophomore summer, and the regular app is for junior summer. If you are a sophomore who wanted to intern for your junior summer, then you should have applied to the regular app. The sophomore app would have been for this summer (2021), and I'm pretty sure that those closed a while ago if you're currently a sophomore. The key is to look at the graduation dates that they specify in the application.
