Can't say I usually ask these kind of questions, but I am dying here!
Did the final round:
-Called to follow up and was given the "let me see if he is available" and told he "just got on a call, let me get your number". Followed up with an email.
-Sent an email demonstrating how I am a good fit.
No eff'n response.
In your experience, am I out?
"Demonstrating how I am a good fit."
How exactly did you do this?
There's a fine line between being persistent and annoying. You, my friend, are unfortunately extremely annoying.
After already doing a superday, such a maneuver makes you look desperate and insecure. The most you should have done in your message is reiterate your interest the firm, NOT argue your case. Don't do this again in the future.
Good job lessening your chances bro
Probably all very true. In all fairness, I never had a solid shot. I am from a real non-target (think ASU) and was the only one there not from stanford etc. and it is a BB position.
Just thought if I had any shot, it would be differentiating myself.
I just gave additional background on why I am interested in banking, and how my experience is applicable.
If you got an interview, target or nontarget doesn't matter. They liked you for whatever reason.
And also, I highly doubt they said "This is our guy" and I sent the two emails and they changed their mind.
I am a firm believer that if you think your chances are slim, you should try whatever to increase them, even if the downside is the loss (which was probable anyways)
What firm? I did a few superdays recently
For what it's worth, calling was too much. Just send a quick thank you e-mail (no need to "demonstrate you're a good fit") saying that you're enjoyed the opportunity to interview and are looking forward to hearing back... bonus points if you throw in a specific detail from the conversation with that particular person. No more than three sentences total, remember that these guys don't have a ton of time.
^ = win.

Did this after a phone interview with the team. I was really just trying to do something different and be persistent after the final round. Maybe not the best move but whats done is done. Thanks for the opinions, although I feel the same (likely did not get it).
So, WTF was the point of this thread?
