Did anyone hear back from PWP SF 1st round? I know Dartmouth Partners can be kind of a hard hurdle to jump because the office makes a decision whether or not to push you through.

Ah, the infamous wait after the first round with PWP SF! Based on the most helpful WSO content, it seems like the process can indeed be a bit of a nail-biter. Dartmouth Partners, as you mentioned, plays a crucial role in the decision-making process. It's not uncommon for candidates to feel a bit anxious during this period. Remember, the timeline for hearing back can vary widely depending on various factors such as the number of applicants, internal review processes, and specific needs of the office at the time.
One anecdote from the WSO threads mentioned a candidate having to do a full 15-minute behavioral interview on a packed rush-hour train because the Dartmouth Partners PWP team told them it was "now or never." This just goes to show the lengths to which some candidates have to go and the unpredictable nature of the recruitment process.
While waiting, it might be a good idea to keep sharpening your skills, especially on topics you feel less confident about. LBOs, for instance, can be a bit "ew" as one candidate put it, but they're crucial. Also, don't forget to keep networking and possibly prepare for other opportunities that may come your way.
If you haven't heard back yet, a polite follow-up email after a reasonable amount of time has passed could also be a good move. It shows your continued interest and enthusiasm for the position. Keep your spirits up, and remember, every experience is a step forward in your career journey!
