Anyone know what to expect in terms of the timeline?
Was told first round notifications will happen during the first 2 weeks of March and that the process should be wrapped up in early April
Has anyone been able to finish all 50 q's in Pimetrics?
Its not that hard
Has anyone heard back about the first round interview?
Curious if anyone know whether Vista sponsor or not? Much appreciated!
I think the first rounds are mid-late march and the super day is early-mid April

Did anyone network for a first round?
No just dropped resume
got invited to first round but haven't gotten emailed the exact time yet for interview, any1 else have the same issue?
I'm also having this issue
For what it’s worth I have a bunch of good relationships at the firm - networking really doesn’t matter much. I believe the first screen is the CCAT that they put a fair amount of weight on.
Did you get an interview?
Yep. Got the email last week. Have spoken to alum and 4 other folks at the firm multiple times who all say networking doesn’t matter much. Being able to articulate a genuine interest in SaaS investing and Vista as a firm matters more.
You think all first rounds are out?
I think rolling through end of this week

Got dinged RIP
Did u interview?
no lmao I did not. 3.7 GPA, 40+ CCAT Score, I networked, go to HYPSW, straight Korean dude
^
Anyone had their interviews yet?

First rounds have been the past week and this week. Second rounds given out tomorrow or Thursday.
Yes I know, that’s not what I meant
Has anyone heard back yet?
Nope waiting
Just got rejected lmao
havent even heard back… what time was ur email stamped?
2:02 pm.
just got the second round
Also moved on
Got 2nd, for some reason email showed up in my promotions / ads inbox so maybe look there
seems like a lot of ppl moved on... three already
Got 2nd round.
am i dinged if i haven't heard back yet
have u heard back yet?
just had second round. anyone know when we should hear back by?
Probably tmrow as they wait until every candidate is done interviewing in a round
how was ur interview? i think mine went p smooth
did anyone else do their second round with a person from the chicago office?
Did first round with someone in Chicago and 2nd with someone from Austin . Asked about the location choosing process and they said all summers will be in austin and then have the option to choose either chic or austin in the future.
looks like its two first rounds then. i had the opposite. also since it seems like a lot of ppl got the second round
Vista doesn't have a Houston office... Only Austin. All interns will be in Austin and those that receive FT offers have the choice between Chicago and Austin.
Did anyone hear back regarding superdays yet?

anyone know what percent of people who get the superday get an offer?

Hey guys,
Can anyone PM me or is anyone open to me PM'ing them regarding the interview process, relevant topics to research for interviews etc. ?
I just noticed that there’s a 2023 pe summer analyst posting on my school’s (non target) handshake. Posted like a week ago and expires on sep 11 or smth. I thought applications closed like half a year ago and they would be far into second rounds and what not. Heard some people were already extended offers. Anybody in the know care to comment on whether they are still looking for ppl in their summer analyst class? Thanks!
Same situation here but people on the inside told me they’re doing another round
Damn you think someone reneged? I hope I’m getting a next round I missed on vista so having a chance is golden! Tbh I did pretty well on that ccat, like a 45+. Hope I get a next round considering I’m from a non target.
Damn, that's super weird for a megafund like Vista. Talked to 2 VPs inside. Doesn't seem ligit
But it’s a bit weird someone must’ve reneged. They didn’t update the post on handshake for no reason I think. Did you apply for vista already? Lmk, thanks
Did anyone get first-round interviews for the Sep cycle?
I haven't, have you? Did you submit your application by the sep 11 deadline btw?
And does anybody have insight into how soon vista follows up after submitting the ccat/after deadline passes? Thanks!
Just got a rejection email, unlucky thought I did really well on the CCAT
Yea, I heard back on the 14th about the next round. Was surprised since I finished like 42 questions on the CCAT
Non-target, not the best GPA, IB sophomore internship here and I thought I did well on the CCAT, but didn't through to the next round. I thought the CCAT was important and heavily-weighted enough that it might be able to mask my GPA, but I guess not. Congrats and good luck!
Anyone hear back for R2?
Wondering the same thing, had my r1 today.
I had mine today as well and have not heard back yet. Thought R2 was tmrw through Fri but the email also says the dates are subject to change, so I guess we could hear back tmrw
Also had R1 today and thought R2 was tmrw... when I asked my interviewer when I should expect to hear back she wasn't completely sure but thought that R2 might happen next week?
Just got invite to R2
Should we assume to be dinged if he haven’t heard by now?
Anyone hear on the SD?
Most likely gonna hear back tomorrow since they make decisions after everyone is done
what’s sd?
Superday
Anyone receive any updates?
didn't hear anything today
I think SD invites are out
