Can I still get the internship?

Hey guys,

Had a personal interview with UBS for an internship on June 14th. Guy told me to write him an email in the next few days to confirm my interest in the position. Sent email on June 18th, he answered me on June 19th and wrote "We will decide in the next few days on the candidate for the internship. Best regards."

Man I'm stressing out. I so want this internship, I NEED it, I had a good vibe during the interview, think I did pretty well. Today is the 25th, I hope I still have a shot at getting this. I said I could only start a bit later in the year (october) and he said that he had to ask a guy in a specific division if that was possible and compatible.

I know it's only been 7 working days since the personal interview and 4 working days since he sent me the email saying they'd decide in the coming days, but do you think this is still possible?

Show them some grit and and desire for the position and call.

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... and I'm all out of bubblegum.
 

As above - call. I've seen bankers deliberately not contact candidates, to see if they're hungry enough to reach out.
