Oof assuming their resume drop is closed? Networked with someone from the firm at an event and they sent a followup email mentioning that their analyst process happened during the summer but lost contact with them after I replied... Was the application limited to certain schools?

 

they posted a webinar and app link on my school’s handshake, so it does seem like it’s school-specific. i haven’t received an invite, but not sure if it’s because i was turned down or because they haven’t sent them out yet 

 

I'm an a incoming asso and asked a friend - apparently they are going through resumes post MDW

 

I don't have specific intel on this, however general advice is networking is helpful at any point, even between rounds - if you can get someone to like you incrementally more they may go to bat for you over someone viewed similarly which could make a difference. 

 

Hi, are they taking 2023 offcycle interns (September start date)?

If they do, how does one apply?

 

Got first round invite today - any info on what kind of questions to expect would be greatly appreciated!

Also, does anyone know roughly how many stages of interviews there are / how many candidates they cut before each stage? Less relevant but just curious.

 

What do people do from this role? Typically Associate / Principal or do they exit to HFs? 

 

What's first year comp? Heard it used to be really low, does anyone know if they bumped it (like they did for associates)?

 

Anyone know what interviews are like? I've heard super technical but not sure what that means? Like isn't there is a ceiling at how technical these can get 

 

Did people hear back from the first screen, and if so how long did it take? Were supers already given out?

 

Anyone plugged into WP know if the insight programs for diversity/women lead to anything? Got an email (class of 24) for a number of insight programs, was wondering if these lead to anything or just serve as networking opps. 

 

Are they still interviewing? Know a couple Wharton people got offers, not sure if they're done 

 

I've heard 4 offers out, 3 Wharton 1 non Wharton but GPS 

Anyone know if there is any spaces left or if it's just 4? Maybe recession might slow hiring vs last year when they took 8
