How long has it been since?

And what is the time frame between application and when you were called for interview?

Is interview in person or via virtual? How many interviewers?

Sure starting pay is 6.5k and it's good but every batch, at least 40% get fired before probation, 30% fired after 6 months.

Good luck. GS don't f**k around, JP Morgan is much more lenient tbh.

I agree. WLB is honestly not that bad in GS given that you have to OT at every other bank too. GS pays the highest amongst all BB for grads, so definitely a good place to start at.

just curious, where can GS ops exit to?

Also, how long to wait for indication of interest?

And what is working hours and turnover like?

This is BB investment banks thread, don’t mind pls check DB thread instead as people here may not be so familiar with their exit opportunity.
