I had a first round on Friday too
how do you think yours went?
How was it? Did they ask any technicals?
anyone hear yet?
not yet
Was this for IB? I haven't heard back yet from them.
yes, they already conducted first rounds
Has anyone heard back after first rounds? I'm still waiting.
already? At a target west coast school and we dont have OCR until late october for first rounds.
My application is still in review....
Had my first round last week. Think it went pretty well. Have not heard back yet.
same here
I had a first round on the 23rd as well. Have yet to hear back but will update this post when I do.
Off to the superday for me. Just found out via email.
I had my first and second round yesterday and got a call from them today with an offer- i go to a target school btw Good luck to everyone!
congrats man, exciting stuff
Also at a target school and received an offer. What are your thoughts on accepting versus going through the process with the rest of the banks?
I'm using this offer as leverage to have some of the other banks push up my interview dates so I'm waiting to accept until probably the last possible day. How about you?
Guys, you are late. They are already sending out the superday invitations. John Stumpf attended one himself and had a mock interview with Elizabeth Warren. She didn't ask any technicals though.
I'm invited for superday as well!
when is your superday?
In two weeks, I am a diversity candidate so it is through a program.
How many resumes did you submit? I heard you have to submit your app through at least 8 different accounts if you want to get hired.
I heard about this too.
what kind of sources did you hear this from?
Wells was literally giving interviews to people in my class that didn't apply. Our professor gave them a resume book and they started contacting people.
Lol really? What "tier" of school ?
Top 10 in the "rankings". State school.
I just got invited to the superday as well.
I got dinged today. Good luck everybody at the super day next weekend
.
If we didn't hear yet does that mean we didn't get it?
HR said we would hear back on Monday
.
Don't worry if you did not hear back sometimes it takes longer than you think
Wells Fargo 11/29 summer analyst application (Originally Posted: 12/04/2017)
Hey! Did anyone apply to the Wells 2018 Summer Securities Analyst position? It was only open on 11/29 and I was wondering if they were going to do interviews before or after the holidays
Your'e probably really late, their one day apps for 2018 SA was done in August 20thish, maybe this is for remaining spots because they couldn't fill their class.
I know this is super late (I was even surprised I found the application open that day) but just curious if anyone's on the same boat
Anyone hear back from the IB and S&T women's superday from this past Friday(10/21) yet?
Wells SA (Originally Posted: 12/21/2009)
is it just me or does Wells Fargo still not have their SA app online yet?
Still not up
i checked, not up, do u guys know when?
I think beginning of January, if you look at all the other intern positions on the site it says they open in January but the sec division just says check back later. I assume they forgot to put it on.
Anyone else put "on hold"? Has anyone heard of people actually getting offers from this status in the past?
Wells Fargo SA (Originally Posted: 01/30/2011)
Does anyone have any insight of WF interviews? I have phone screens coming up soon. i have a director in DCM batting for me and have been networking too. i come a from a uber non target. so I want ot give this my best shot.
This is for ugrad SA. It is the only bank I'm interviewing with so your input would be appreciated for those who recently interviewed....what region did you interview for? What should I expect...since they are a unique BB.
A few people at my school got put "on hold". As far as I can tell, no one has received an offer from that status so far but I would say that there is probably still time
my phone interview was both fit and technical. Know the materials in the WSO guides along with the generic "walk me through your resume". If you have someone going to bat for you it may be more fit but as long as you are prepared you should be fine.
were technicals more accounting or finance?
Read the WSO guides if you haven't already... I've never used them myself (never interviewed for IB) but I've heard that they're pretty helpful. I actually interviewed with Wells/Wach for their SA program a while back, and I don't remember getting asked anything out of the ordinary. I interviewed for S&T though, so it may be different for IB. I'd imagine fit being a bit more important since they're smaller and in Charlotte instead of NY, but I don't really know.
thanks guys. to be honest i dont even know what group im interviewing for. does HR tell you what group before the phone interview? from what I've heard SAs get to rank their groups after they get an offer. is that true?
I think you just get an offer first, then choose your groups later. Last thing I would say is just try to relax (easier said than done of course). Coming from a non-target, I've been in the situation of only having a few chances at interviews, and the worst thing you could probably do is psych yourself out, because it'll probably show during the interview.
I heard back, got invited to another superday? So a superday again after the superday I did?
Wells Fargo SA 2012 (Originally Posted: 02/16/2012)
What do you all think about WF? I liked the people that I met at that firm a lot but am not sure if it would be a good SA position if I consider transitioning FT to another firm.
Thoughts?
lol what...
Yup, my first superday was a mixed superday of IB and S&T(this was through a diversity program), so now I have a second superday with just one.
this is for IBD by the way
Have offers anywhere else?
I've heard good things about WF. Friendly people, and the bank itself seems relatively solid; it didn't, as far as I remember, suck up quite as much in toxic assets as most of the larger banks, and as such is in a less rocky position. Might be a good place to head if you don't want to go into work every day wondering if you'll be called into the conference room.
they are rising in league tables if you care about that. Massive DCM / loan sydicate biz. They are hiring - not firing, and they have pretty high SA-FT conversion I've heard.
well, another recent one I got was from goldman, albeit in a financing role (lev fin/derivatives/etc.)
not sure which one to pick - would it be difficult to transition to an GS IBD industry group by summer's end? financing is technically within IBD, so would it help for FT recruiting (industry or M&A) elsewhere?
So you're asking whether you should:
or
Option 2, absolutely.
go with WF IBD.
That makes sense. Just worried that the WF name won't get me FT interviews (I do go to a target, so not sure if that would help).
HAH
I'd take goldman if it is really a lev finn group and not a s&t role. chances of going to an industry or another product group at goldman is low but you can always try other top BBs.
do you know what group you will being at wells? i dont think they let you know right away, they have a placement day right before summer.
WF SA online app WTF??? (Originally Posted: 12/05/2012)
So did anyone else notice that the online app for Wells Fargo SA was only available from 12/3-12/4??? Is it just me or is that crazy? They clearly enumerated those dates on the website too so it didn't seem to be a mistake.
Has anyone heard back after being put on hold? It's been 2 weeks so thought we'd hear back by now.
was put on hold 3 weeks ago and was contacted last week that the class was filled up.
I noticed that, but was forewarned at a networking event. There was a campus career posting for WF, but the outcome of that was just an invitation to apply between those dates. Crazy though.
What? How is that possible...is it for a special target group or what...
I'm def not at a target, it was an off the record conversation with a NY sales guy. Makes sense that they would only forewarn those groups / schools that they want applying, but as I understood it, it was for securities and banking divisions, so it's pretty bold and unprecedented.
u dont even need to apply if ure at a target - just make a profile.
They included the requisition number in the invitation email, so I applied regardless.
Yeah I would definitely call that bold and unprecedented. I can't imagine that they got half the talent pool that they could have had...
I guess I can only email them now...
they have been doing that for the past couple years for both SA and FT classes. got keep a daily tab on those or have an inside connection connect with HR for you and they (she) will give you the exact dates. i doubt it is a must to apply on that date, i think they are just lazy and don't want to flip through so many resumes. If you know someone at the firm you can get your resume through you should have a decent shot to get an initial screen (if you are a nontarg).
Did anyone else notice that there was only one summer analyst application (combined for both investment banking and S&T)? Or did I make a mistake...?
Yep, only one requisition number. But some students got a survey via email that asked about preferences, probably because of OCR postings.
How many kids do you know who received this preference survey email? Just curious because I go to a school where WF does not recruit and I was the only one of my friends to receive this survey (maybe because I networked through alumni and they just blindly submitted apps).
Did everyone at WF targets receive this survey? I've heard bunch of mixed responses regarding it. Sometimes they don't send them to people until after a first-round interview before superday?
