GS Summer Internship Application Deadline

<p>I had a 4.0 when I applied. Someone else who interviewed and got an offer had a 3.8-3.9. </p>

<p>However, the business school at my college has grade inflation, so I don't know for sure if you need to be in that range. I would imagine if you are 3.7+, you should be considered.</p>

<p>I didn't even get an interview. I had a 3.85...but granted I half-assed the essays. On the other hand I'm heading over to NY for an interview with morgan stanley. So don't get bummed if one bank or another turns you down./</p>

<p>How did you already land a super day with MS? Is this for BO/MO?</p>

<p>some schools are already having FO summer interviews. All the bb's except MS and GS have their final rounds for banking next week at my school, with MS being the following week and goldman the week after that</p>

<p>Edit: nevermind, i think he's talking about the soph honors programs?</p>

<p>MS sophomore program's submission date hasn't ended at Penn (or at other targets) so SEO, perhaps?
Good luck with your interview.</p>

<p>What other sophomore programs besides GS, MS, Merill, Citi?
I know CS has a 2-day thing. Does DB have anything?</p>

<p>neutralnuke, apart from those 4, JPMorgan has a summer program for freshmen and sophomores too. Go to the Careers section of their website and you will find a unique link to the application as you scroll down a bit.</p>

<p>Guys, do you know if Merrill Lynch has a unique link to its sophomore program too?</p>

<p>oh yeah, them too. Have it marked down but forgot to mention it. UBS too - due today.</p>

<p>Merrill doesn't have a specific link - I emailed HR about it...still waiting for a reply.</p>

<p>I applied to the richard b fisher scholar program thing at MS.</p>

<p>So I applied to all the (six) programs that are sophomores: GS, MS, JPM, Citi, DB, and RBS. </p>

<p>B of A is not doing sophomore recruiting this year. Bad year. </p>

<p>What other banks recruit sophomores? 6 doesn't seem like a wide net.</p>

<p>also, add ubs to your list - they have their president's program in stamford.</p>

<p>credit suisse doesnt have a summer program but they do have their immersion program. At one of their presentations I'm pretty sure they said they are only taking people from a list of like 12 or so target schools for that this year so if they arent recruiting on your campus you're out of luck there.</p>

<p>UBS due date was 9th, methinks.
I don't think DB has one...</p>

<p>db had one last year. Was it cancelled because of the market?</p>

<p>Are spring program applicants notified before/together/after summer analyst applicants?</p>

<p>as of now I have applied to GS, UBS, & JPM... have the deadlines for citi, rbs & db passed yet? and if not, when are they?</p>

<p>That's when you start contacting alums to try to get yourself into the process.</p>

<p>What is going on? My D interned last summer as a rising junior at GS. She was back office--compliance. She was told that she was definitely on the "bring back" list. She has a great relationship w/ the people she worked with and regularly keeps in contact.</p>

<p>This year she would like to move to front office--sales and trading. She was told that once she is re-accepteted (no need to reapply) at GS, she can ask for a transfer but is guaranteed original offer. </p>

<p>She got 1st round interviews at Citibank and JPM. She did not make second round at Citi. The JPM interviewer told her they were not doing second round and were making first round offers. But then my D got a phone call from JPM saying they were very impressed and waned my D to know they are still interested, but she needs to wait. She also still has not heard from GS.</p>

<p>What is going on?? Have any of you been given an offer? Is it as bad as the press says?</p>

<p>Its rough, but not impossible. I've got one in FI S&T and am waiting on 4 others to hear back.</p>

<p>Have they started interviewing applicants for the GS Spring Program (IB)?</p>

<p>I had a phone interview. Went terribly. Got a call yesterday saying I won't be considered...but it was really wierd from the beginning. Because I had gotten an email from the recruitment team, but I had told them I already had spring break plans. The lady insisted on saying that she wanted to talk to me to talk about the program, so I was like ok yeah sure. "Talking about the program" ended up being a phone interview, which I did not want in the first place....wierd GS..plus I've heard their corporate culture is pretty cutthroat..</p>

<p>You are obviously still bitter about not performing well on your interview. Understandable, but it does not warrant such blatant bias. The people that I've dealt with at Goldman Sachs (met in interviews, pitched alongside with, talked to in sponsors transactions, etc.) are the consummate professionals. They KNOW that they are the best, but they are always very humble. It is a culture that emphasizes teamwork, results, and work ethic. It takes a tremendous amount of self-confidence and ability to do well and thrive at GS; you have to be able to judge the situation (as well as yourself) holistically and dispassionately and put firm success above personal endeavors. If you think that's cutthroat, then banking is not for you.</p>
