Troubling grades and FT offer...
As per the title, I was fortunate enough to go through a SA position at a European BB and received a FT offer to join the firm the following year. However, during my internship application, one of the criteria was for grades, and all I put was an expected second upper since that was an available option.
I've received the FT offer & contract, but with one semester to go (I graduate early in Dec 2021) it'll be very tough for me to actually get my grades to that level. I'm off the required GPA by about 0.12, and I'm worried that if I don't meet the degree requirement of second upper and above I'll have the offer letter rescinded (which makes it doubly embarrassing if that were to be the case).
I'm trying my best to pull my GPA up this semester, but I'll have to perform really well which might seem unrealistic.
Could anyone share any advice on whether HR/banks look at grades as a veto requirement? I'm planning to be honest with my HR contact and communicate that I will try my best to get my grades up in the current semester, but I'm afraid that the worst case scenario might occur - having the offer rescinded contingent on my final university GPA and degree classification.
If you honestly believed and communicated an expected grade that won't materialize it will show up on the transcript. You'd have to explain the discrepancy if they ask. Since we are talking about a future event, put as much effort into your education as you can. Focus only on that.
Thanks for the advice cyberpunk! i'll try my hardest to pull up my grades - don't think there is anything else within my control anyways.
