Depends on how many apps you put out. I think you should be more concerned with your conversion rate. If you're coming from a target I found first round on campus interviews to be really straight forward. You should be aiming for 75% at least IMHO.

 

As a follow up though I think 3-5 is a healthy number to shoot for overall. Gives you really high chance to end up with at least one. You learn a lot after a few superdays, so having a few "practice" ones isn't a bad idea. I use quotes because obviously you want to do well in all of them but realistically it might take you a few to get into a groove

 

75% conversion rate? Are you smoking? A company usually only interviews 10 students from the 50 or so who applies from my target school, and then they choose 1 or 2 to move on from the first interview.

At a non-target for banking: 5 IBD first rounds led to 3 superdays. Got one offer.

Even friends at targets seemed to have similar numbers of superdays. The stories you hear on here about people getting tons of final rounds and deciding b/w multiple top offers are extremely rare.

Don't worry about your # of superdays, just focus on getting one and killing it... Good luck!

 

From what I have seen from several banks, generally 33%+ of people at a superday get an offer. I know one particular bank (not BB) interviewed ~60 people for ~20 spots in CIB. That has also pretty similar with my personal experience.. I'd probably aim for 4-5.

Some people do really well in their first/second rounds, others not so much. I had interviewed with around 8 banks with only 2 superday invites.

So this also depends on your interviewing ability. Some people are really well liked as soon as they step into the Superday in person, so its super easy to convert to an offer. Other people sound much more composed/better over the phone and aren't as sociable/relatable in person.

 

I had 7 invites at least. 3 were just for Goldman Strats. They liked me and just kept passing me to different groups to find a fit. Once I got offers I liked I just dropped out of them. They are exhausting. Especially the quant ones. S&T is like a day at the spa in comparison.... To be fair I'm in a masters program so going up against undergrads for 1st rounds is heavily stacked in my favor.

 

I've done 2 superdays (one today, and one last saturday). I'm really worried I didn't get the Position from the superday last saturday because I haven't heard back, right?
