How long after the CCAT do they reach out to you?
Any idea when the start date would be?

 

From looking at prior years, it looks like they'll reach out a week after the deadline and no clue on start date.

Was contacted by their HR to provide some more information after the CCAT but I don't know what exactly that means. The deadline I was given was 10/17 so I probably won't hear more information until then.

 

I also applied a few weeks ago and got a request for additional information maybe about a week after I took the test with a deadline to submit by the 17th

 

Interestingly, I got requested for extra info but never took the assessment test. Assuming they used my score from a previous app. Not sure

 

Got the request for more info two days after CCAT, following for more info on the process 

 

Just spoke to someone from the firm, don’t think interviews will come out till after the application deadline. 

 

Mine still says under review (updated 10/20). System made me take the test twice for some reason. Also never got a score or anything lol

Exact same thing happened to me. Under review and had to take it twice

 

Are you a first year in IB? Asking bc we talked about banking backgrounds in the thread earlier
