Still waiting. :frown:

Tbf, I applied to everywhere really late.

LOL, that's a bit rich coming from you. :rofl:

My skepticism is based on information from people in the know. Your's is based on the fact that you are unable to network with people.

And you know that, how? I have contacts but I don't go around claiming that banks are literally begging to have me working for them or that I'm best buds with MDs.

I say we let the guy troll, all the regulars here already know to ignore him. Don't give him attention because that is what he wants, he lacks it in real life.

Just received an invitation to Citi's numerical test.
Sounds like fun

'How does it work?
All candidates commence Elements at the same point, those who answer accurately are rapidly progressed to increasingly complex information and questions; those who take too long or answer incorrectly are presented with easier information and questions. Elements quickly adapts to the candidate and hones in on the individual’s own level of ability. This system offers considerable time efficiency compared with other assessments, whilst retaining high levels of psychometric rigour.

Not sure i like the sound of this. I haven't gone beyond GCSE maths and that was nearly 4 years ago. Was good then but if it gets onto A level maths I might be in at the deep end. why cant they just do a normal test - those are ok.

With 6 guessed questions it's impossible to get it to interview stage. (excluding the possibility that you are the One)

Well actually it is. You've got to get half of them right for spring week (been there done that).

According to the site, it's not worth $3000 actually. This guy, LawQC, owns this site and is trying to promote it. The more visitors, the more money he gets. Nobody visit. Dont troll the feed

Really!? Do you mind telling which bank that was? and does it make a difference if you applied for markets?

It not even my site though - my friend only told me about the site today and said he would pay me 10 quid if I ask people's opinions - because he doens't have internet - since he is away.

So which banks have you applied to?

Wow 'a few' - which ones? And what details?

Yes, I applied to JP MOrgan. That's unfortunate about the assessed exam - try rescheduling?

Has everyone but me heard back from any firms (rejection or otherwise)? :frown:

I've been rejected by JPM, done the tests for CS and that's it. I only applied for 6 SW's though (GS, JPM, CS, Citi, Nomura and HSBC), and I applied to most of them pretty late.
