Bankers, what are some reasons you might automatically ding a candidate during superdays? If their phone goes off/they wear weird clothing/say something completely stupid? Just curious to know

Don't forget your pen in your padfolio because the Associate will preface the technical question with "you're gonna want to take out a pen for this one" then you helplessly stumble around trying to calculate the answer in your head while he stares at you like you're a total fuckin idiot, then you should be good. Man that sucked.

No, your worst nightmare is when you realize your entire existence is because of me

Inferior Richard, he was testing thim .
I'm sure he noticed you didn't have your pen with you so you could stumble.
Was looking forward to some interesting responses, only to find that this thread is 90% richard.# circlejerking
Got dinged for screwing up a technical question on tax impact in my first PE interview. The guy on the other phone line was just like "Yeah buddy, that won´t work, call me back when you got some notches on your belt". It really do be like that sometime
at least he was honest
We Germans tend not to sugarcoat things and are quick to say "No" to other people. It makes things very simple and I prefer it to the tippy-tappy dance-around you Yanks do.
did u call him back
I will - as soon as I have those notches. Obviously.
