SA 1st Round Callbacks - Your Experience
In your experiences from the past, how long did it take for you to hear back after your first interviews for SA positions? In general was it a day or two or closer to a week?
Depends:
If it's a phone interview (i.e. Hong kong), it can take anywhere from 1 to 3 weeks depending on the timing of your interview (they spread it over the course of a month or so)
If it's an OCR, you're pretty much guaranteed to hear back within a day, or two at most. NY banks are very aggressive and efficient in that if they want you for final rounds and even extending offers, they let you know right away (e.g. the evening after your interview)
If your first round was on campus (from my experience), they call you back on the same day or the next day.
thanks...time to face reality
If an interviewer replies to a thank you email a couple hours after OCR interviews, but makes no mention of next steps/moving on, should I assume I got dinged?
In my experience, smaller firms generally tend to turn around decisions more slowly (sometimes up to 3 days). Additionally, if you are interviewing for a regional office and have your name submitted to the headquarters, you can expect a delay (~5 days). Other than that, a couple hours to 2 days is usual turnaround on Super Day invitations.
0-3 days.
0-3 Business days or just days? I did my interview on Thursday night and the gentleman who interviewed me is at SF. Didn't hear anything during the weekend.
same day
I never did any interviews off-campus, so I heard back in a day, usually an hour after the interviewers had interviewed everyone.
