Was told that core school 1r's were last week and non-core/general is this week. This is for CHA office tho.
no not for CHA, process is location-agnostic
Process will start with phone screen interviews in June/July probably super days in august unless the timeline is moved up that’s the last I heard
is that not insanely late? lol... wells fargo is gonna be left with the bums like me who get no offers by then
They’re usually like one of the latest banks to recruit, they really gotta move that shit up
I’m gonna go ahead and assume you won’t land any gigs including Wells Fargo LOL
What other banks recruit late?
Does anyone know about superday for real estate SF?
Real Estate IB? Those groups are in NY and DC
From core target and have superday this week non div
Core school super day is the 6th. “Write-in” application superday will be after (weeks/month). Diversity is scattered depending on which diversity program one applies to.
Awesome thanks. I'm a non-core school... Have R1 happened yet? Have had a hard time getting people on the phone—do I have time to network and squeeze into the process still?
I don’t think R1 has occurred for non-core schools
what are their core schools?
I think it is Duke, Penn, Vanderbilt, UC Berkeley, UNC, Wake, others
Can I ask you about the write in? Got one today. Does that mean I will most likely go through the first round or is it for everyone that's non target?
Have apps closed?
yes
.
are u core school?
.
I got the invite, and i am from a southern semi-target school here. do you think it’ll be technical heavy?
You got your schedule already ?
I got the invite, but haven't received the actual schedule yet
Looks like we'll be getting them tomorrow then
Stay away man trust me
care to elaborate? all I heard is that their placement process is whack
I was a summer analyst and am now an analyst there. No idea what he's talking about; they've treated us well and spent a good amount of money on out-of-office events like renting out top golf with free food and beer. This dudes just mad they offered him a job in Charlotte so he couldn't live out his Jordan Belfort fantasy (if he even got an offer to begin with, which I seriously doubt)
you just saying random shit
Non target, offer received in the middle of July last summer. First round was end of June, superday was early July. Can't speak for target schools/ general process, only sharing my experience.
Edit: S&T, not IB. Would assume timelines are roughly the same, maybe 1-2 weeks earlier for IB.
Anyone get their schedule yet?
Anyone hear back from SD?
not yet - semi-target school
Some people at my school heard back same day as the super day (from semi-target southern school)...I didn't hear back yet
did you hear back today? they sent out waitllist/rejection emails today
Did anyone else receive an email to fill out a preference form? I'm unsure what it's for and the link enclosed doesn't work.
I just got that too; the link doesn't work for me, either. Should we reply to the university recruiting email?
I guess? I never got a first-round anyway so maybe the email was sent out to all candidates by mistake?
Same! Link doesn’t work either
Linked worked for me got it earlier this morning does every applicant get the preference form?
del
Got the broken link as well. They have network issues and recommended to check again in a few hours. Hoping this means its a first round tho
I think everyone gets the link, unfortunately.
i think so too
What's the recruiting timeline here?
link is working now
Delete
Everyone got the link. Has anyone received updates from them after filling it out?
following
following
following- also got survey
anyone from non-target hear back after completing the form?
Nope
nothing after survey
did we all get dinked :(
Could be 100% wrong but it seems prior cycles they where doing SDs well into summer so I would not be worried u got dinged yet.
Give it time fellas; this week is the starting of their decisions to send out 1r's. Doesn't mean it's the only week or that they're done already.
Anyone had updates regarding first rounds?
just got first round; non target, non diversity
What location did you put down as your first choice on the form?
well this just ruined my day smh
any updates?
Just got my invite this morning. Non-target, non-diversity. I think this is gonna be spread out throughout the week. Don't panic yet.
1R? And thank you for the information.
Def in panic mode rn
I also got a first round. Anyone know if it is all behavioral or techs also? Is it group/location specific or general?
Didn't get a first round email... i guess i will just network for ft in the summer.
are they done giving out first rounds?
Not sure
is wells a good bank to join for IB? always hear mixed opinions
I believe so, they are on par with HW, Jeffries, and baird/WB imo. they have a top regal group that I know of and were top 15 in league tables last year for m&a I believe. They pay street and have good exits. Heard culture is good too.
oh cool! I wasn't sure whether to accept their offer or let it expire and gun for other banks. but as non-target this makes wells seem dope af. ty
Top 10 in US (only market they operate in). I used to work at WF and enjoyed my time there.
Good luck everyone
Wells is a great bank if you’re after lifestyle - if you wanna live in Charlotte long term or if you end up in NYC and wanna be a career banker I think it’s hard to beat Wells who pays street, seem to have really good culture in most groups, and don’t seem to work as many crazy hours as many other banks. Although these things may change as the bank grows and tries to put more focus on its IB division - I know TMT, which has historically been extremely weak, was working longer hours in general back when I was looking to lateral there for wlb around 5-6 months ago.
The drawback solely is in terms of exits right now, outside of its strongest group (REGAL) and the odd placement from industrials, WF really doesn’t place at any big name buyside opportunity. Haven’t really seen any WF folks (that didn’t lateral somewhere else) at any reputable MM/UMM fund that I could think of although I’m sure there are some sparse examples. This is likely not going to change in the next 3-5 years given how few sell sides most groups there seem to do, most of what you’ll be doing is financing so it will absolutely limit your exits.
Current 2nd year at Wells in a coverage group - we see some MM / LMM PE exits every year and some kids who stay on A2A. Didn't really get any looks from MF/UMM personally, but got good interviews at shops I was definitely interested in that were smaller but still prestigious. Have an offer at a MM PE shop outside of NYC. I second that lifestyle is better than my friends at JP etc and since I wasn't too gungho on the KKR/Blackstone etc train I'm happy with where I am
Should I assume I'm out if haven't heard anything besides the preference form?
I heard from a development officer (they work heavy in recruitment) that they are sending interviews out throughout the week so I wouldn’t count your self out yet.
Ok thats good to know thank you.
Just got first round non-target (like super non-target) non-diversity
Did you network with anyone at wells before your first round invite? I am in the same situation (non target/non diversity)
late response but yeah, 2 development officers, An MD, 2 VPS, 3 analysts, there were all super responsive on emails.
Just got first round S&T, anyone else?
Does anyone have any insight into the 1R for IB? Heavy technical or mostly behavioral focused?
Did you hear back yesterday?
How many NYC offers have been given out? Are they done / when will they be with superdays?
All offers are platform. If you receive an offer group and location will be decided on placement day sometime in October.
Whats the turnaround timeling like from R1 to super?
Did 1r for IB and SnT this week. Any insights on the next steps? Is there a 2nd round or do we go straight into spd? Also how long should we wait to hear back?
We’re going to hear back this weekend, it’ll be a 2nd round no SD. This is for west coast though
.
Did you hear back yet? I had a second round with SF last week. Are offers out a week after that or SD decisions?
Any insight on West Coast IB SA24 timeline? Just completed 1R earlier this week and wondering when we’d hear back
2nd round for SF is out
when did you hear back?
I had a first round earlier this week and still have heard nothing. Am I dinged / is there a chance I still get a SD or should I reallocate my hope elsewhere.
Anyone else just get SD for S&T?
just got IB SD
just got ibd sd as well
Did you get the SD schedule or have you been assigned interview times yet?
Got an email congratulating me on advancing titled "interview information" but it doesn't say "Final round" on it. The scheduled interview in my workflow is with the same people that did my 1R, however this wasn't in my workflow prior to the email. Is this email a mistake? I am getting the vibe that it is the old update to my application process that HR is just way behind on.
old
Has anyone been reached out to about SD scheduling?
Yea I was reached out to a couple days back for the 2nd round
Specific date and time or just general message?
Is WF good enough to be able to FT recruit for top firms (JPM, MS, GS) or to lateral if FT recruiting doesn't work out? lmk if anyone has insight on this. thanks
What is the WF generic email format? I thought it was [email protected], but my emails keep getting bounced. lmk
It is. Some emails bounced back for me too.
It is that but some folks, if they have middle names or there’s more than one person with the same name at the firm, will have variations on that like [email protected]
Should I assume I was dinged if I haven't been reached out to for scheduling SD interviews?
Did you get the generic "Interview Information" email with no date?
Did you get the generic "Interview Information" email with no date?
Yes. Exactly that.
Has anyone received confirmation of the exact time of their superday that will be on Wednesday? I got the confirmation email when I signed up, but have yet to receive the exact time of my superday. Lmk please. Thanks
Read the email they sent closer. The interview schedule will be out by tomorrow.
Anyone heard back from final rounds last week?
Did you have a final round with 2 people. I got a finished a second round with SF office last week and email said offers would be extended after that interview but not sure if that was superday or just a second round.
I did as well, I'm pretty sure it was a final round because someone was saying SF only has two rounds. idk when we should hear back
Has anyone received a superday schedule yet?
It is 8:40am calm down
Does WF do 3 rounds or 2 rounds?
I got an email about scheduling my 2nd rounds unsure if this is SD or not
Anyone hear back from CIB S&T 1r?
Yes, superdays are out for this thursday
Which office is this for?
Placement happens after acceptance
I only had 2
Should I assume I was dinged if I did 1r 2 weeks ago and haven’t heard back? App still says interview in Workday
for those who got superday schedule for tmrw, are we supposed to register for our specific room beforehand? or do we just click the join button once it is actually time for the interview tmrw?
Good question. I don't wanna open the link rn but I'd say join around 20mins before your time and login then. There'd definitely still be time to send last-second emails if the link doesn't work for some reason.
You wanna PM about your group and team?
Has anyone not received an interview schedule
Is anyone else mad confused about this room stuff?
didn’t get a room invite link just was told I’d be getting a call tmrw
I just got an offer for ibd, does anyone know how placement works
Was the superday technical heavy or mostly behaviorals?
The technicals were very conceptual and I’d say it was 50/50 behaviorals and techs. Feel free to reach out if u have other questions
First off, congrats! Recommendation as someone who went through the process, whatever team and city you’re gunning for, I recommend networking with that team as soon as possible. Wells historically has a history of shafting people over their placements and teams will usually have a good idea as to who they want early on, especially the better teams that are way more competitive.
Thank you so much! This is a dream come true. Do you mind if I PM you to ask a couple of questions?
hi i was wondering what the most competitive groups at wells are in your opinion?
did you have the superday today?
I had it last week
Does anyone know the time between end of superday and offers going out?
they said within a week but I had mine last wednesday and have not heard back yet
anyone who had super day today (may 17) hear back or know when were hearing back???
Got offered about 15 mins ago.
And you had a superday yesterday? Have you heard of anyone else getting calls
Say sike rn
Was your SD cut into 2 separate days?
are they giving out offers on a rolling basis or did they all come out at once?
Was your SD cut into 2 separate days?
