2023 recruiting in 2021 is wild 😂😂
Wtf? Following for updates.
Are they still recruiting?
Nope they finished just like all the other banks have for SA 2023. Have fun being homeless or working at McDonald's
The application is no longer visible on Handshake which is why I'm asking the question. No need to be rude.
When can we expect to hear back for first rounds?
bump
bump
do they give first rounds only based on referrals?
Anyone else get a first round?
Damn congrats - didnt get one (target, non diversity, didnt network)
i did
when did u apply?
For the guys who got first rounds, when did you apply and did you network?
got a first-round, networked, non-target
Where did you find the app since you're a nontarget?
So if you didn't get the app, then the first round is essentially your "app" I'm assuming?
Anyone hear back? My first round was VERY technical
ya pm me
You heard back?
mine was really technical too
What were some themes / stuff they asked? I have a first round coming out, much appreciated.
Anyone hear back for second rounds?
No. Did you?
My buddy got a second round
When was your buddy's first round? I had mine on Friday.
got a second round, not sure how many more rounds there will be but 10+ rounds sounds so grueling. Seems surreal.
Friend from school (target) got 2nd round. No networking
Friend of mine got moved to 3rd round
Delete
No but seems like process is moving quickly
Do they have a modeling test?
Yes
Delete
Modeling test for SA?????
Any updates? Typically 4 rounds then 7 rounds at a superday is what I've heard. Those on 3rd rounds are halfway to superday. Anyone have an idea on # of people in process?
Some super days have gone out
Got a formal rejection. Did anyone else get one?
Same here :( did 2 rounds and didn’t miss any techs. Pretty disappointed
Delete
Anyone else get an update today?
offer?
del
Just received offer
Congrats
pm me
Congrats! How many rounds did you have?
Did you have to interview with the President?
Qatalyst banker here. No need to lie about offers. We're still screening candidates. No offers given out yet.
Appreciate the update. Good to have guys like you on the platform
thank you for taking the time to comment on this forum given how brutal your hours must be lmao
cant reply to my emails but q bankers browse wso. perfect.
missing out of a lot of candidates by having no proper resume drop.
There is a proper resume drop at target schools
is the firm still recruiting?
Heard return offer rate last year was like 50%...
Can confirm. Brother has a good buddy who didn't get a return offer
Lol idk why people feel the need to blatantly lie on this site. Kind of defeats the purpose.
lol ok bro
Q had a 100% offer rate last year. All interns were extended offers
the return offer rate for summer 2021 was 100% and all 5 of them accepted
source: current analyst at Q
@Q analysts, have any additional interviews gone out? Seems like there's a pause on the interviews
Has anyone else had 2 rounds of interviews and not received any additional information regarding the next steps?
del
Yep in the same boat
had r3 on Friday
Have any offers been extended?
not sure, but I got notified for an additional interview so it seems like their process is ongoing
Same here just got another interview
Has anyone done a first and second round on the same day and not heard back?
nope
I know at least 1 offer was extended to a Wharton kid who turned it down for MS/GS
think we know the same guy, can confirm.
do you know if any other offers were extended?
multiple offers extended at my school, more diversity than not tho.
dont know how much diversity counts for boutiques tbf
must be wharton lmao
nah midwest target
do you know if they signed?
A buddy of mine got an offer but turned it down for FT Partners.
classic FT Partners HR
Guessing Qatalyst wrapped up?
Yeah, they're almost wrapped up. I have my 9th round tomorrow. Super diversity - Super Target - 4.0 GPA - IB Soph BB Experience
Super diverse? Are you taking the short bus to work?
Can confirm I've gotten my 11th round tho
No, I take the NEEK bus every day.
Are you Ultra Target? 4.0+ GPA?
Did you also have to build out an entire DCF on paper for your 2nd round as well?
