<p>eternity, since you applied round 3 and have not even had an interview yet, i’m afraid it appears you didn’t get SEO. i say this because i know some round 3s who have at least interviewed. at the same time, i don’t feel great about my own chances having applied round 2, getting to the final interview, but not a word back since.</p>
<p>I don’t know if first rounds are necessarily over. IB and S&T acceptances run on different schedules. Even within a group, kids find out at different times. For example, SEO called me within a few hours of the last round to accept me, and magicmike says he found out yesterday. Even for individual applicants, the time frame can vary. Again, as an example, I found out within hours that I was accepted to SEO, but it took them more than a month to tell me that I made it past the second round. </p>
<p>I think the biggest thing to keep in mind is that there are only a handful of people working to sort through literally thousands of applications, so it’s going to take time for them to get back to people, and they clearly don’t have a specific day that they normally inform applicants. So to anyone still waiting to hear from them, don’t assume you’ve been dinged yet just because other kids have heard.</p>
<p>^well said. My main point was that if you haven’t even heard back for a phone screen yet, you’re most likely not gunna get it. But yes, there appears to be no rhyme or reason to their notification process.</p>
<p>Hey Snesareva,
You will receive an e-mail from SEO saying your decision is posted on your application site. So you log back into the application site, with your pin and password, and there’s a link to your decision.
Good luck!</p>
<p>JesterCityLimits, congrats man!! I go to UT too, maybe I saw you at the SEO info session?</p>
<p>Anyways, got my in-person interview tomorrow…hoping it goes well!!</p>
<p>Congrats to everyone that’s been accepted so far! I’ve also been accepted to the GCL Program, I look forward to meeting you all during the summer</p>
<p>can anyone please describe what the corporate finance acceptance call sounds like? lol i’m just so curious! is it someone from seo or a bank calling? has anyone received any rejection calls? my understanding is that your status will be updated online if rejected, maybe an email.</p>
<p>Dude, SEO will call you if your accepted, and if your rejected you will get an email telling you to check your application or something like that.</p>
<p>magicmike:</p>
<p>Congrats man on the acceptance. Any word on when they said we’d hear about placement?</p>
<p>@jroutt</p>
<p>Thanks men. Um actually no but i think Barclays Capital or BAML because after our assessment day, i went to their HQ for another interview with a MD. But they want me to send my transcript AGAIN with my Fall 09 grades so i will probably hear back after they get it. </p>
<p>What about you?</p>
<p>@iamthacheese210</p>
<p>Hey man I just saw your message, how was your interview? When was the info session that you’re talking about. </p>
<p>Guy’s I think we’re suppose to hear back early this month.</p>
<p>has anyone who applied to s&t round 2 heard back yet after second round intervieW?</p>
<p>hey so i just got a call saying what partner firms I got an offer with. I didnt even know that because they never updated my status on the application. Some guy called me and said that they are going to make decisions in the next couple of weeks. What should I make of this? I applied to IB 1st round. Should I renew my hopes or should I just let it go?</p>
<p>Thanks guys.</p>
<p>@rtalati89</p>
<p>If they called you then their probably still interested in giving you an offer. I think the call you got is just to make sure that didn’t already accepted anything with any of SEO partner firms.</p>
<p>For those who already accepted SEO offers, how do you feel about waiting to find out what partner firm you will be placed at? </p>
<p>I accepted my offer a while ago and the waiting game is starting to drive me nuts . . .</p>
<p>Thanks JCL.</p>
<p>Haha I like the name. Whenever I pull an all nighter at the B-school I always get a monster/rockstar from the market at Jester. And god damn that Wendys…lol its the lifeblood of campus but its gonna kill us slowly</p>
<p>I’m getting a little anxious about hearing about placement too. They also did not give me any word about when they’d tell me either. Anyone know how they go about informing us? Phone or e-mail by SEO, or do we get called by the partner firm?</p>
<p>How many people do they normally take from the waitlist this late in the game? Anyone know? Thanks</p>
<p>just got in today! thank god…so how does it work from here? Do you just randomely get placed or is there some kind of interview process/superday?</p>
<p>@ rtalati89, congrats…and no I’m pretty sure there isn’t. SEO just places you with firms and they do the ‘interviewing’ for you…as far as I know.</p>
<p>But yeah, it’s cool 2 ppl other ppl from UT are going. What areas are u guys in? I’m doing IB</p>
