Specifically, I have a superday coming up with Baird, as well as a superday coming up with Rothschild.
For a competitive candidate, does anyone have any approximation on the percentage of individuals who receive offers?

Depends on the place. I'd say generally speaking between 15-50% (50% would be on the very high end)
Thanks Black Jack. Do you think that number is higher or lower at boutiques in comparison to BBs? What about "2nd-tier" firms?
I have no idea. If you are a better candidate relative to the competition then you will have a better chance. I'm pressed to say lower at an elite boutique because there are fewer spots, but they also might interview fewer people at a superday. Heard rumors of Centerview interviewing like 30 people for 1 spot- could be totally crap though. 2nd tier firms just means that if you are a 1st tier candidate you will have a better chance.
If it's school-specific, maybe they're bringing in 6-10 kids for 2-4 spots? If it's general, probably lower.
It quite depends. An analyst at a lower end BB told me that they plan to hire only 2-3 SAs out of 5-6 schools (60-70 folks in total). It is only their regional office but just FYI.
This sounds horribly off.
NYC GS hired 3/15 at my super day NYC MS took 5/20
Would expect the regionals to be quite similar.
About 20-25% in general. Henryxrub's numbers are obviously not superday -> offer conversion. Maybe total interviews offered -> offer conversion would be like that
I think 20% is a reasonable guess.
That's what I heard- that BB office had a really bad performance last year so deal flow wasn't strong. I'm not sure but I am just quoting. She probably included first-round and superday candidates.
