PJT SA 2023
Hi all, I thought I'd set up a forum for recruiting for PJT RSSG and PJT SA for summer 2023. If anyone has any information regarding when we should expect to hear back about first rounds, that would be great

bump

.
got rejected lol
sorry to hear, are you diversity?
yes
Which group?
rssg
I know diversity people who received offers to RSSG fwiw.
Do u know how many offers did they give out
x
Nothing yet
how much networking have you guys done?
I asked someone in a networking call if there was anyone else I should talk to and they said they aim to get everyone just 1 conversation and it doesn't matter after that, did anyone else get the same response?
1 conversation from everyone or aim to get just 1 conversation?
Bruh I’ve spoken to two and they basically said I’m “on their radar” for first round (also at wharton)
7 just seems like overkill but you’re gonna have a great answer for why pjt lol
I’m between 2-3 at each bank I’m targeting, response rate for me is around the same
It’s been harder to get responses at lower tier BBs, but the EBs and GS/MS/JPM have been much easier
Tell me you go to Wharton without telling me you go to Wharton
Has anyone heard back from Park Hill?
x
Nothing yet
Did everyone get the update email (NY advisory) ?
Applied for park hill what did it say
“We expect to kick off in few week…you will hear back by end of April… if you’re no longer interested let us know by Friday… “
Yeah. It basically didn't say anything tho. idek y they sent it. Thought it was my rejection letter or smth lmao when I saw the subject header.
I got one too but for park hill but i never applied to park hill …
how did u guys feel u did on the suited assessment? think it matters a lot?
I dont think I did great
RSSG 1st round interviews are going on from March 22-29, w superdays taking place later in the week (March 30 - April 1).
For diverse or non-diverse candidates?
Non-diverse, women's program has given out at least 4 offers.
went to info session and they said rssg 1st rounds will be this week/next week, m&a will be later (early April).
seems to follow what the other person was saying
Has anyone (non-diverse) received a 1st round? Or if I haven’t at this point should I just assume I didn’t make the cut?
me neither. RIP guess it's an L.
just got rejected from sf office
same.
same i got rejected before starting the suited assessment
Heard they filled all spots with diversity already don’t feel bad
so much for being an equal opportunity employer lmfao
that's so fucked up
were u guys from non-targets by chance? if not its actually fucked that diversity hiring takes every single spot in the office, lets hope its a glitch
Nope, I'm target, and idk the others but I'm assuming they're also targets otherwise we wouldn't be complaining so hard.
I actually looked up the office on who and found this:
"networked with the group recruiting for SA 2021. The analyst i spoke to was a super cool guy and the culture seemed good. They do strategic advisory and are very well regarded. I never ended up interviewing there though as they only take 1 SA per year and have female superday to fill it up before looking at any other candidates (if every candidate takes an L which isn't likely)"
Makes sense why everyone got rejected right away, but isn't this discrimination lmao
Secondary advisory diversity offers went out late last week. Strategic advisory diversity has given out a number of offers. I believe they may have exhausted their waitlist at this point for diversity. RSSG non diversity process is ongoing with superdays late next week. Unsure about RSSG diversity offers but their first rounds were about 1.5 weeks back. Unsure about strategic advisory non diversity.
Do you happen to know how many offers they gave out for secondary? And what do you mean by waitlist?
Not sure about secondaries offers. Only know one person who got an offer and was not accelerated.
By waitlist I mean they offered a certain amount of people, and pull from their waitlist as they need more people/people reject the offers.
So if I haven't been contacted about a first round for RSSG there's no chance?
I’m in the same boat as you and I think that’s correct
I’m in the same boat as you and I think that’s correct
I’m in the same boat as you and I think that’s correct
I’m in the same boat as you and I think that’s correct
NY M&A non div hasn't started so everyone calm your tits
1st rounds will be conducted early April with superdays done in mid April
All rssg first rounds done?
idk but i got a superday invite
?
Has anyone heard back from rssg following their Superday this week? Or been told when to expect to hear?
^ did any offers go out on Friday?
Not that Ik of. If none did, Monday is prob the day.
same
M&a or rx?
100 first rounds have/will be sent out to fill the remaining 10 spots in the class I’ve heard
Source?
wait so diversity took up more than half of the spots?
current analyst there
Just got first round for strategic advisory NY— semi-target
Are all first rounds out? From target here
I'm a non-diversity target--not sure if this helps answer your question, but i got one and in the email it said should I move forward after this interview, I'll be notified on April 18th.
Did anyone hear back after R1 for M&A yet?
had r1 today, we should hear back next week according to my interviewer
But isn't the super next week? Do you think they'd give us that short of a turnaround time?
del
Yup. Got rejected as well for RSSG
Does anyone know if PJT Boston kicked off interviews? Haven't heard anything.
I got a rejection email from them so I guess if you haven't, then you're prob still in the process
super days were happening last week
What will strategic advisory superday be like?
Did you get a superday?
I'm at a target (H/W) and have heard of other people getting accelerated superdays for Strategic Advisory. Is this true? Hope not...
I'm at a non target and had my accelerated superday today
Did you have exploding offers?
What should we expect from the first round in regards to technicals?
deez nuts
NY Strategic Advisory superdays went out today. They're going to be doing them next week.
Did they send them all at once? guess I got dinged
I thought they said they'll go out on the 18th.
Bunch of non-diversity offers for SA are already out. Some superdays left this week.
Source?
Myself and my friends with offers.
has anyone got an email today about a super day?
nope
nope
nope, looks like we might all be dinged
How many spots are left for Strategic Advisory offers?
Anyone get offers yet???
When was your superday?
That superday was rancid
It really was terrible
Someone on the main thread said we'll hear back today and tmrw. Is that true
it should be tonight (based on last year)
Any updates on SD??
No offer or rejection yet, but coming soon...
This waiting game so painful, best of luck!
In hiding awaiting my rejection atm
Welp it’s 8pm - ggz
Wow did we all get rejected or are they collectively holding out lol
tmrw?
I have heard tomorrow from someone who interned there previously and had exposure to the recruiting process.
Do you happen to know around what time tomorrow?
Anyone know if Secondary Advisory SDs have gone out?
Anyone hear back from SDs yesterday yet?
Nope, what are the chances we all got dinged? Idek anymore
Not sure how much of a help this can be for anybody but I applied for NY Strategic Advisory a while back - never got a first round or further into the process - but just got an email saying I was rejected and not getting through to the first rounds. Maybe a sign that decisions are coming out for Superdays?
At this point we're trying to find signs from anything so thank you
Just received an email PJT was "discussing my candidacy" and would get back to me late next week...waiting game continues
I got the same email... maybe they're trying to see how many ppl will accept from earlier rounds
So if we didn't get this email are we rejected or accepted? Lol
That's a good guess. Idk who would turn down PJT tbh. Maybe only for a top bb
Rejection emails are out for those of us who never got a superday, finally some closure lol
Rejected from SD
Deleted
Anyone hear back from PJT Secondaries Superday?
