How much legal power does an offer letter have?
Recently signed an unpaid internship offer with a 10 men boutique. There's still a month before I get on board. I was wondering if there any chance the firm rescinds the offer? I don't have any reasons to believe they would but I have seen posts on firms rescinding offers. How much legal power does...

Dealing with HR when canceling a superday?
I got a verbal offer last week but hadn't gotten any paperwork and had verbally accepted. To protect myself I followed up with a person at a bank I was told I would get a superday with, and immediately after I sent him an email HR sent me a superday. I did not respond to the email. 1 hour later I...
What I Learned From Both Getting Dream Job And Then Dumped In One Day
Alright Monkeys, So I've been a long time user of this site and have wanted to give back for a while - so here goes. Today during my painfully boring Econometrics class I received a call from a BB's HR telling me I had been officially extended an offer as an analyst on my top choice team in NYC ....

So I signed my offer letter for SA , but received an updated letter reflecting new analyst salary pay raise at a BB - my initial deadline was 9/15, but after I signed, received updated offer letter with deadline of 10/1.

Help! F500 Corp Dev. vs. Stay at Big 4 Audit vs. Early Stage Startup?
Originally thought my path would be B4 Audit ---> IB -----> VC------> B-School-----> VC . I realize now that I don't want to stay in audit, and so I decided to get out as soon as I can rather than wait. I still want to attend a top B school with the ultimate goal of getting into VC (and possibly...

How to *APPROPRIATELY* Find Out Why You Didn't Get the Offer?
Just curious what everyone's opinion is on asking why bank X didn't give you an offer after a superday . I think I've read on here before that people only ask for feedback if they think the interview really went terribly, but what if you personally knew someone at the bank (e.g. analyst who was in...

BCG offer, take it or ask interview at McKinsey
Hey guys, I just got an offer at BCG and was wondering if I should just take it or ask an interview at McKinsey.

IBD SA Choice: BarCap/DB/Citi/WF
Hi guys, Wasn't the strongest candidate, but came out with these offers. Recruiting for my school finished pretty early, so won't be able to leverage to get better offers.

I am second-guessing my FT Offer.
I'll be graduating this year and received a full time offer from the firm I worked at this summer. The role is in corp banking.

So I received a verbal offer for a SA position at a BB about two weeks ago. A week passed and I asked the HR rep when I could expect and email from someone in their department or an offer in the mail. They said someone in the office was out and they'd scan a copy of the offer letter over by the...

Signed my FT offer and my BB completely forgot about me :(
Signed it a few months ago. Emails were exchanged with HR welcoming me back and all of that, and since then I havent heard from them. How do I remind them that I still exist?

Heres a template I thought...
FT offer letter questions
Hi guys, got my FT letter to start at a BB next year, very excited. Though I just want to compare and contrast with some of what the other guys have on here for previous years or even the current year. 1) Does it clearly state the analyst stint is for 2 years? It doesn’t say on mine for some...

Any one get the offer from Scotiabank or BMO?
I haven't heard back from them for a few days since the superday . I suspect that I'm either on the waiting list or, simply the HR is taking their time to reject people (more likely the latter). So what should I do now? I don't have more I-banking interviews coming up and I'm a bit depressed and...
Will a minor help me land a finance job offer?
A minor alone will not help you land an offer, however, it can help pull your story together. If you decide to major in chemistry, picking up a minor in business can help highlight your relevant background to finance recruiters. Similarly, if you are a business major who wants to work for a boutique...
When will I hear back after my finance job interview?

Depending on the number of positions available, anywhere from 20-80% of the super day interviewees may receive offers later that day. Other strong candidates may be put on...
Firm doesn't give FT offers, how do I explain this?
I'm working at a small AM fund this summer that typically doesn't hire people out of undergrad, they hire on a need basis from investment banks and other random shops. I got my SA through a connection and my boss just happened to need people but said at the start of the internship there wasn't a...
