Worse case scenario you'll find out by September 5th, which is when your application(s) will be pushed to regular decision. I'd give it around a month to know if you're in or not.

 

Anyone else with update yet on Early action? I know some got superdays but also heard those were diversity or rising junior. Would be interested in seeing if anyone non-diversity & rising sophomore got it...

 

No worries man, I expected as much given I didn't do any networking with them, whereas all the other BB's I applied to I heavily networked. I applied mid-July, but didn't hear back regarding a phone screen whatsoever. I think the combination of attending a non-core school and a GPA that wasn't a 4.0 rekt me.

It's just bizarre that I'm as far as I am with JPM which was ranked #1 for tech m&a, yet MS flat out denied me. like wtf lmao

 

Ah no worries, thanks though. Yeah I thought so too. I do know one of the junior analysts from high school and we didn't get along so maybe it's that.

Either way, I got a return offer from the boutique I'm at now so regardless, I'm landing somewhere next summer. I'm cautiously optimistic about other BB's (JPM and BAML).

 

Update: I got a superday invite last night: heads up I believe I was considered in the pool for diversity recruiting, so if you haven't heard back yet don't stress it. Good luck guys!

 

I emailed HR on the 14th and they said we would hear back by the 15th, but I still haven't heard anything. I don't want to be annoying and email them again but this is very strange. Does anyone have info from someone at the firm about what's going on?

(target, non diversity, had my first round 2 weeks ago)

 

Hi LonstedBrowry, don't worry, the WSO Monkey Bot is here.... I'm hoping one of these links will help find your answer:

More suggestions...

If those topics were completely useless, don't blame me, blame my programmers...

Not sure if it is typical or not at MS, but it is not uncommon, in general, for some top I-banks to have the first round in the office. In lieu of phoning you and asking you questions, some bankers (and correct me if Im wrong about a banker interviewing you or is it a HR rep?) will rather see you and ask you questions (will probably entail technical and fit if a banker is interviewing you) to get a real understanding of the first round of candidates and who should be dinged vs. who shall not.
