Nomura 2025 S&T SA Interview Invite: wtf
EDIT: There was a bug on my account. Interview tomorrow morning.
Hi,
I applied and did the tests for the S&T Summer at Nomura yesterday (they got out yesterday) and got an email today saying that I got an invite for an interview. They said I should connect to my personal space and pick a slot.
So I do this, and notice that on the select your interview slot page it says “Unfortunately, all slots are currently full. Please check back here regularly for new slots as they become available.”.
Then I checked the email and noticed that 10 minutes had passed between receiving the email and noticing that there were no slots available for interviewing.
How many slots did they even open for them to go so fast lol this is kind of weird?
Is it possible that I’ve been shortlisted but because I applied so early they simply didn’t upload the slots yet?
Has this ever happen to you?
Based on previous WSO threads, here's what you need to know:
Quick Slot Filling: It's not uncommon for interview slots to fill up quickly, especially for competitive positions like S&T Summer Analyst roles at top firms such as Nomura. This can happen within minutes of the email being sent out.
Checking Back Regularly: The message you received about checking back regularly for new slots is standard. Companies often release additional slots as they manage their interview schedules and availability.
Shortlisting and Slot Availability: It's possible that you have been shortlisted, but the slots were not yet uploaded or were taken very quickly. This situation can occur if the firm is managing a large number of applicants and interview schedules.
Similar Experiences: Other candidates have experienced similar situations where they received an interview invite but found no available slots upon checking. This can be due to the high demand and limited initial availability.
Actionable Steps: - Regularly Refresh: Keep refreshing the interview slot page frequently to catch any newly available slots. - Contact HR: If the situation persists, consider reaching out to Nomura's HR or recruitment team to inquire about additional slots or express your continued interest and availability for an interview.
