Oppenheimer FT 2025

Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some insights regarding hearing back after second rounds:

• Delayed Feedback: It's common for candidates to experience delays in receiving feedback after final rounds. For instance, one user mentioned that their recruiter informed them of a delayed debrief/decision meeting, which could indicate either a genuine delay or being on a waitlist.
• No Immediate Response: Another user shared that they didn't receive immediate feedback after their final round with Bain, which they interpreted as a negative sign.
• General Expectation: It's not unusual for firms to take some time before providing feedback, and sometimes candidates may not receive any feedback at all, as noted by a user who mentioned receiving feedback from only 22% of their applications.

If you haven't heard back yet, it might be due to a genuine delay in the decision-making process or you could be on a waitlist. It's advisable to stay patient and perhaps follow up with your recruiter for any updates.
