Ah, the waiting game post-interview can feel like swinging through the jungle without knowing where the next vine is, right? Based on the most helpful WSO content, it's not uncommon for candidates to find themselves in this limbo. Here are a few pointers to keep in mind while you're waiting to hear back from Rothschild for the SA 2025 position in NY:
Follow-Up: If it's been over a week since your accelerated first-round interview, it's perfectly acceptable to send a polite follow-up email to HR or the interviewer. Express your continued interest in the position and inquire about the timeline for the next steps. This shows your enthusiasm and keeps you on their radar.
Network: Continue to network with professionals at Rothschild and in the industry. This can sometimes provide insights into the recruiting timeline and process. Plus, it's always beneficial to expand your professional network.
Prepare: Use this time to further prepare for potential next steps, such as a superday or final round interviews. Dive into the WSO Interview Prep resources to sharpen your skills and knowledge.
Patience: The recruitment process can vary in length, especially for competitive positions like the one at Rothschild. Sometimes, delays are simply due to internal processes and not a reflection of your candidacy.
Stay Positive: Keep a positive mindset and continue to apply for other opportunities. It's important not to put all your bananas in one basket!
Remember, each candidate's journey through the recruitment process can differ, so take any shared experiences with a grain of salt and focus on what you can control. Best of luck, and hopefully, you'll be swinging into that SA position at Rothschild soon!

How'd you accelerate?
women's diversity
I thought diversity superdays were done. My friend rejected their offer for another bank, and another friend of a friend signed earlier this month.
Had my spd for women’s program on Thursday and got offer call Friday
How? They haven’t even done the final rounds yet
Wdym? Pretty sure diversity superdays are mostly done if not all
What were some of the technical questions they asked you?
hi doing the program this year - can I ask how selective/hard it was to get an offer after the SWP
Hi doing the Women’s program this year and was wondering how difficult the interview and technicals were?
Anyone heard back for technical first rounds for Rothschild LA?
anything on the regular cycle of applications (non-diversity)?
bump
anyone get spd from this weeks r1 for NYC?
Hi! Just wondering when did you hear about 1st rounds?
div or nondiv, target or nontarget for you?
Were your R1's scheduled through school alum or HR? Cause my semi-target said we aren't doing R1's till next week at level.
i heard the same
Any updates?
I had my first round interview yesterday. Waiting to hear back for superday. Does anyone know how long it takes them to decide?
How was it, if you don't mind me asking. Were the technicals difficult?
I had another interview for a different company right after and compared to that one it was on the more difficult side. They asked many questions and followed up 2-3 times on each question. Interview was supposed to last 30 but went over by close to 10 minutes. No accounting or any basic questions on the guide. They were all advanced. They started by asking me full EV formula and followed up with why you would subtract investments, minority interest, NOL etc. Asked me about a merger I’m interested in and what the benefits of the two companies were doing such a thing asked a lot of follow ups here, mostly conceptual and with regards to types of transactions benefits and more (from advanced guide). Then asked me about LBO, the basics and asked me about when an equity investors/ strategic buyer would use an LBO in order to conduct a transaction. A few other questions as well but the hardest question was regarding PIK interest and why a lender and the borrower benefits from this type of debt.
anyone know how fast roth gives offers, or if they give rejections after sd?
i heard you only have 48 hrs after receiving an offer to accept/deny them, so i'd assume they move pretty fast
If you get it they'll typically give you a call the next day. Not sure about rejections
An MD told me they are pretty much done with recruiting. Can anyone confirm whether this is true?
Definitely false, look on LinkedIn - there are like 2 people that are incoming 2025.
d
Are Rothschild interviews/internships generalist? Or do you interview for a certain group?
Superday is done by a certain group but the interviews themselves and the internship is generalist
Anyone have any updates? At a semi-target here, and was expecting R1's soon but haven't heard much from alum. Anyone in similar situation?
They are done
