Hey guys!
Just wanted to create this thread because I do not believe there is one for the Barclays Springboard event for sophomores this year.
Wanted to see if anyone has heard back from Barclays? Hopefully we can share our timeline information. Post when you applied and if you have had a phone interview and when you heard back!
I applied on February 20th but have not heard anything yet besides completing my Koru!

has anyone done a phone interview or first-round for this?
Have you guys heard yet and do you know if Barclays does phone interviews? I am wondering when women will find out and then when diverse candidates will find out! :)
I applied to it a couple of weeks ago, hopefully we hear back soon. I'm probably dinged at this point though since my cover letter had another company's name in the recipient's address
lmao
hey!!!! did anyone do this for 2017 and could shed some insights thanks!!
is this only for diversity?
yes.
do you guys know if there are phone interviews for this and when we should start finding out?
has anyone heard any updates about his?????? :)))
Are we suppose to receive a confirmation email from Koru with our stats?
I applied right before the deadline, and I just got an email from alumni saying that he wanna catch up. Not sure what's that call is about but at least heard back something.
TQ24 what do you mean? is this just like a friend you've talked to before or? I have not heard anything yet
Well he came to campus info session, but I have no personal connection with him. The wording he used in the email seems really casual, like “catch up with”, so I don’t know if it’s a interview or not.
hey guys!!! everyone check their app portal!!! does it say when your app was last updated such as "updated april 4th" or something like that?
also has anyone had any phone interviews? TQ24 do you go to a target? will you let us know what your phone is regarding?
Thanks!!!
Well I would say my school is semi-target. PM me and we can chat more
and my status is "Updated Mar 17th", which is the day I submitted my app
TQ24 awesomee!!! okay I tried to but it says I have reached my limit!!! Do you mind PMing me so we can chat! Thanksss!!!
They came to our school earlier this week. I asked the person I had a coffee chat with and she said they haven't started viewing resumes.
heyyy!!!! anyone heard anything???? when you check your application when your app was last updated does it sayyyyy!!??
They haven't started phone interview process but definitely viewed some resume. (info from my alumni)
TQ24 oh really? when does your app say it was reviewed last? when will they start interview process?
How does one check the status of their application? I'm having difficulty navigating their job portal and I don't think they are letting me view past applications.
log into your career portal and go to my applications page and it will show you with last updated
got a first round
omg you did!! i did not and my app says it was updated april 4th :((( - did you get an email or? also when does your app say "last updated" would really appreciate it!
also I heard in the past sometimes they do not do a first round and you can get directly accepted has anyone heard of this?
@lalinda"
I go to a target and they just visited my school last week. received an email from one of the panelists. my app status is completed -- last updated 3 April 2018.
and I'm not too familiar with first-round vs. direct acceptance
I got a first round. anyone know what number of first rounds move forward usually or get an offer?
Also how can we view our applications, if possible? I don't remember if I went ST or IB for this app bc i am recruiting for both at different places lol
omg you did!! i did not and my app says it was updated april 4th :((( - did you get an email or? also when does your app say "last updated" would really appreciate it!
also I heard in the past sometimes they do not do a first round and you can get directly accepted has anyone heard of this?
also- you can log into your barclays careers board and then click on my applications, I can send you the link if you want.
hereformymrsdegree
it says my app was updated april 4 but i just heard back today via email. I was able to find my app and I was accepted to IB and i don't know which event however because I am an LGBTQ female and i am unsure whether lgbtq is included with the ethnically diverse session or what
Just finished 1st round with an alum. Said we should hear back April 19th
How was the first round?
hey everyBodyEats927 !!!! how was the first round interview? were there technical questions???
or was it more a casual convo? would really appreciate your tips a lot!!!!
how was itt!!! what tyoe if questions did they ask everyBodyEats927
it was really chill. No technicals just resume, why IB, Why Barclays. Mine was with an alum so other than that we just talked about classes and stuff
had a "first round" with an alum on monday and he said id hear back on my status by friday
thanks sooo muchhh!!!! :))) everyBodyEats927 I am surprised yours said the 19th whereas ebit_dab said this Friday...
ebit_dab did they mean this Friday or next Friday.... mine mentioned by later next week but he said that is more of an "administrative" thing
ebit_dab hey can u let us know when u findout if you got it today since you said you will hear Friday?
heard back last night!
was wondering why i haven't heard back and it's bc i forgot to do the koru assignment...
I go to a semi-target and haven't gotten a first round. Application was last updated April 10. Yikes!
Anyone heard back about superdays?
Heard back from Barclays, asking to submit pre-hire assessment form
when did barclays get back to you?
this morning
Isn't that for everyone though? I was stoked when I got it then realized everyone else also received it...
lol really? I don't have too many friends who applied to this program
Do you mean the pre-interview assessment? That I think everyone received it. I think @TQ24 may be talking about some pre-hire form, not sure about that..
Hey, I'm doing IB and I didn't receive the pre-hire thing, but just got an official Congratulations-type invite for the IB Springboard on may 2-3rd with superdays
wow, congrats! When did u get that? It comes with a super day opportunity?
Yeah, I literally just got it 8-9 mins ago. And yeah it says there will be scheduled interviews on the second day that could lead to an "early offer for summer 2019".
Congrats! Also, may i ask when did u do your phone screen?
I got the same congratulations-type invite for the IB on May 16th. Can we connect?
Also just got offered the interview after a phone screen for may 16-17
IB as well?
Yes
did anyone get an acceptance but only for May 2nd? bc thats what mine said and im from non-target
I got accepted for the 17-18 but it did imply that not everyone who was invited was given an interview opportunity
Mine says acceptance for the program May 2-3 and then the interview will take place some time on May 3rd!
Did anyone hear back from S&T?
Are rejections being sent out, or only acceptances?
I just got a hirevue (for LGBT)! Anyone else get one / know what the questions are?
hi izvh did you get an email recently asking you to apply early to the 2019 program before interviews!! Have you heard back from your pre-program "buddy" ? Thanks! :)
i accidentally applied to two divisions and a recruiter reached out to me to choose one. When should I hear back from them
bump, got an email from the recruiter sending me a new link to do koru
When will the rejection letters come out?
Does anyone know when the results for S&T will come out?
I just heard back!
Wow congrats!! Best of luck with the superday
Did you also receive an official email? I haven't received any email from them besides the Pre-Hire Assessment. :(
Did a phone interview for IB, haven't received anything. Does it mean that I am dinged
Just got a phone call from alumni saying that I got accepted to S&T springboard program
congrats!! have you been paired with your buddy yet? also - are you doing the 17-18 event? I was also wondering if you got an email telling you to apply for the 2019 SA program before you interview?
Thanks!
Yeah, I got an email from my mentor today. But I didn't get anything about 2019 SA program
is the may 2-3 only for women? I did the hirevue the 22nd but havent heard back yet. I got a reservation confirmation to a hotel in NYC for may 2-3 but im a minority dude so I thought it would be may 17-18. Anyone in the same boat?
Was it for the Row NYC hotel. If so I got that as well and was confused.
Oh wow I got this reservation as well and was so confused! I even called the hotel to figure out if it was a scam.
I didn't even do the hirevu because I accepted a different offer.
x
Has anyone else not heard anything back
Just got invited to the May 16-17th for lgbt from a nontarget. Anyone else invited feel free to hit me up so we can connect before the event!
congrats!! izvh was your email from a certain name recruiter was her name Megan or was it someone else do you mind saying?
Also does it specifically say in your invite this is an LGBT invite or it does not specify ?
Thanks!!!
Email didn’t specify lgbt - just said sophomore springboard. I am male so I didn’t expect to be invited to the May 2nd-3rd days.
Not gonna disclose the person’s name but they seem to be part of the recruiting team.
Oh also it’s for ib
does every participant in this program get a superday?
TQ24 curious about that also!!
so far has anyone been accepted and not received also notifying that there are interviews as part of the program?
everyone who has been accepted so far --->>> have you guys also got the interview portion?
I got confirmation regarding an interview on the second day of the program in my acceptance email and an email today asking to apply to the 2019 sa program before the interview
congrats! oh wait you got an email today asking you to apply to the 2019 SA program before the interview? I did not get that email at all... who was the email from?
I am doing the IB track should I be worried? Also have you been contacted yet by your "mentor"
are you in the women's program or the LGBT/ethnic diversity program? thanks!!!
How everyone feels about today's interview?
Would like to hear as well ^
Very easy so can’t gauge
i just got invited and have an interview, i believe its for LGBT but it doesn't say (im a gay woman so could go either way) but the dates conflict with JPMorgan's Proud to Be interviews so I don't know whether I can go. Anyone know how likely a summer internship offer is for people who do the springboard?
Does anyone know when we will hear back about the Superday?
I was wondering the same thing! ^ Im thinking Monday or Tuesday.
what kind of questions did you get?
Haha hopefully
What was the Springboard like for those who went to the first program?
has anyone heard from their mentor yet?
Heard back from my interviewer and got an offer
Can confirm, offers (some/all) came out today
?
What was your interview like?
hey! how was your interview? was it very technical or not really?
not really
I think they sent out official email today
cool!
what questions did they ask you in the interview?
quite behavioral
has anyone heard back?
x
what did it people say in responses to you did your interviewers respond? also what does your taleo portal say? updated/final candidate?
what does your taleo portal say? updated/final candidate?
Has anyone gotten a call back today
Nah, I'm anticipating hearing back either way sometime tonight or tomorrow morning
what does your career portal taleo status read?
what does your career portal taleo status read?
Same, still waiting as well. Hopefully we hear back today. I wonder how long they will give us to accept/reject the offer though.
I was told two weeks!
Has anyone heard yet? Also does updated taleo portals mean anything? My portal updated to today’s date from 17-May, I was wondering if that’s common or??
Just heard back!
Congrats. Was it one of your interviewers, or a recruiter?
