I just heard back from Cowen about ranking preferences for coverage/product/location. Has anyone else heard from them about the 2018 analyst program?

Got it too, I think you typically interview for your group like how they do ft recruitment
Got that email as well, haven't heard back anything yet.
does everyone get this? or is this a signal that they are proceeding to do a phone interview?
I got this as well, not sure if everyone got it or only select applicants. Does anyone know when they'll get back to us about next steps?
Not sure, but I saw some old posts and it looks like interviews happen in the second half of November.
This for FT or SA?
FT
for NY office?
have they hired most of their summer analyst class?
i don't think they've even started yet because I just got the preference ranking email on Wednesday
Same here I got mine on Wednesday for SA
I just received this for their SA program
Hi Guys,
I received the mail on November 1st. Not heard anything from them yet. Waiting for the interview process to begin. This is for the full-time analyst position
Yes I agree. They must have sent it to selective candidates
I got it also. I highly doubt it went to everyone. Why would they have you rank preference if you have no chance? Those are my thoughts at least.
I agree but I just haven't heard anyone who applied not get that email. I'm just eager for the interview process to begin
They might have everyone do it and then pick their first round candidate choices based on the number of applicants per location, coverage and product group
I think this definitely makes the most sense. They did say each group is independent in recruiting.
From what I have heard this email does not really mean anything at all.
Hey,
Did anyone hear back from Cowen?
Nothing yet.
I've not heard anything either.
Have a friend who is 1-yr post grad, received the email you all are speaking about, completed it as a recent grad and today received a follow up from a recruiter regarding an open lateral position. Perhaps they will being reaching out to undergraduates soon as well
Gotcha. thanks for comment. I am actually a year post grad as well. Any idea what type of role he is lateralling from?
I got the email as well. Haven't heard any more though.
My contact there (first year analyst) told me that they send these emails out and then distribute resumes based on your preferences. The teams then look at the resumes and decide whether or not to give you an interview. He said there are many positions that are already filled due to OCR but that there are certain teams/groups that still have openings.
Is this for SA or FT? Or both
koalalove SA
VolatileMarket My contact is from a NESCAC school so I assume they recruit from most of the schools that just miss the cut for BB/EB that are in the area.
What schools does Cowen have OCR on? Because all I've heard is that its schools that arn't target schools for BB/EB but dont know specific names
And what teams are most popular/probably already filled up?
TMT groups aren't recruiting for FT 2018.
Can confirm
Bump. Anyone hear anything yet?
I Read somewhere on WSO that someone got an SA offer already
where?
Should be hearing back in the next week or so. Can confirm recruiting is different beyond teams. I've heard some teams are only looking to hire maybe one or two new analysts but the company is growing in terms of size.
awesome. any idea if those spots plan to be filled by some OCR hires or are those the numbers for other hires?
nothing yet.
NYC HC is pretty much done I heard
hc?
Healthcare
