Help on JPM Referral Process

So I'm a sophomore at a target school who recently applied to some of JPM's summer analyst programs, one of which is targeted for sophomores specifically (AM). I submitted a few of these apps this week and last week. Now normally, when you apply to JPM, you provide your referral code is in the app itself.

Yesterday, though, I got an email notification that an employee (presumably an MD I talked to over the phone) referred me internally - but I have no idea who, since the email didn't specify. When I sent out the apps, I didn't have a referral code, so I'm in a predicament now. I can't go back and edit the applications, and I don't want to withdraw and resubmit either - but I do want them to know I've got a referral. Already contacted some people internally who are asking HR, but they didn't get back to me yet. Any advice?

if you did some research you can easily get the answer. But here it is: you dont need to do anything. The system can still recognize your application and the fact that you are referred. I got one too and i think it said it in the email. Also checked with the recruiter.

 

Hi! I wonder if the referral email you got writes that "you can explore and apply for opportunities that interest you across our lines of business by visiting our career site"? Does that mean it is a general referral for any role? Any idea if there's a limit to the number of application to just one, or you could simply apply as many as per your interest through the link? Thanks in advance.
