Hey, can you please tell me about that phone interview? I would appreciate that. Thanks
did you hear back from Citi for a first round. do you go to a target and when did you apply?
yes, non-target school, two weeks ago. 1st round interview in a couple of days. What about you?
just had mine, when should we expect to hear back?
Lots of market-based questions. Be sure to know what the fed is doing as well as its rate. Know what different central banks are doing in the world such as macro strategies and their rates. Show a genuine interest in Citi as well, as fit-based questions are very important to them. Overall I would say it was 70/30 markets-based. Prepare a fire stock pitch, don't underestimate it.
Does anyone know when superdays are? Had a first round as well.
There should be one late september/early october for target schools
Wow really? That is super late... Is S&T just on a totally different timeline than banking? What is the deal?
Has anyone heard about a September Superday? I know they finished a round of first rounds last Friday
just had a first round today. i will reach out regarding superdays for tomorrow
Has anyone heard back regarding superdays?
Was there any mental math/brainteasers in the first round?
Got a few basic brainteasers nothing too tough: How many cups of coffee does Dunkin Donuts sell in a day in the US? What is the angle between the minute hand and the hour hand on the clock at 9:45?=22.5
Definitely have a good stock pitch
When's the next superday?
I just did a phone interview for Citi and I had like 3 technical questions pet interviewer. Apparently they notify us about superdays by the end of this week.
if you didnt hear back a day after the phone interview (unless it was a friday) you didnt get the superday
Anyone have any other advice for the superday other than have a good stock pitch and prepare for a small amount of brain teasers?
what are the chances of lateralling as a S&T SA for CMO or IBD for FT?
Did you get an S&T offer? I think going from S&T to CMO is much easier than S&T to IBD which is nearly impossible depending on your connections at the firm
have superdays coming up for both S&T and IBD.
IBD is my top choice though
got the superday that unfortunately overlaps with superday with another bank at a group I'm fairly experienced with. Can't reschedule and still it's so painful having to give up an s&t superday???
Regardless of whether you are more interested in sales or trading, you need a strong understanding of what's going on in markets. Read the Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, etc. You have a high chance of being asked your opinion on Fed policy, the tariffs in China, so stay informed on markets. Additionally, do some research on stocks and ETFs. You may be asked to pitch one in your interview.
If you are an engineer, expect a few brainteasers and math questions.
