Goldman Sachs Superday Interview Question. Any chance for an offer?
Hi folks,
Introduction: I just graduate from a state university with a degree in accounting and finance. I have couple of experiences on my resume (highlight: winter tax intern at a top 8 firm, summer audit intern at a big 4 firm.
Context: I just finished a Superday Interview for Goldman Sachs for a Credit Analyst Position, there were 3 VPs that I interviewed with.
Question: The interview was on a Friday before Christmas Holiday (12/22) at 13:30 ET. I know for the Investment Banking department, they might reach out early (24-48hrs) for the first wave of interviewee that receive the offer. But how about for Back Office role like this? Do you guys know the expected time range for the follow up email or phone call?
Interview Details: There were 2 rounds in total (first round was with 1 VP, second round was with 2 VPs who took turn to ask questions). The first round seems good for me, he asked me some behavioural and technical questions, we have some chat here and there, and he seems to be relax the whole interview. For the second round, one of the VPs asked me the majority of the question and he seems to like my answers (he nodded, and mumbling "yeah, that's great answer, good good, etc.") but the second VP only asked me like 1 or 2 questions related to one of my exp and my statistic skill then he let the other VP handled the rest; the part that they "ask" me question end in 17 minutes, and they spent a good 10 minute to answer my questions (I only asked 2 questions, and they spent 7 minutes on answering the question about how do I fit into their team if I get hired, what will be my day-day task lookalike?).
Thanks you for your time reading my post, this is my first time posting here ^^
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's what you might expect regarding the timeline for hearing back after a Goldman Sachs Superday interview, particularly for a back office role like a Credit Analyst position:
Response Time Variability: While candidates for front office positions at Goldman Sachs, such as Investment Banking, often hear back within 24-48 hours, the timeline for back office roles can be less predictable. It's not uncommon for the process to take a bit longer.
User Experiences: Some WSO users have reported hearing back in less than 2 hours for certain positions, while others have mentioned a wait time of 1 week to 1 month. For a long-term internship, one user mentioned being told they would hear back within a week but ended up receiving an offer three weeks later after making a follow-up call.
Follow-Up Advice: It's generally advised to follow up if you haven't heard back within the time frame they provided. In the case where no specific time frame was given, a follow-up call after a reasonable period (typically a week) is considered a good practice.
Interview Impressions: It sounds like your interview went well, with positive feedback from the VPs during the process. Engaging in a detailed discussion about how you would fit into the team is a good sign, as it shows their interest in considering you for the role.
Next Steps: If you haven't heard back by the time you expected, it's appropriate to reach out politely to inquire about the status of your application. Make sure to express your continued interest in the position and the firm.
Remember, the hiring process can be influenced by many factors, including the holiday season, which might extend the response time. Good luck, and hopefully, you'll receive positive news soon!

Given the holidays, I would expect to hear back first week of January if it was a “superday” or even sooner.
thank you!
