What are the next steps for GS Trading Academy?

I got an email saying I was shortlisted and I completed another form again but I haven't received the hirevue link (been 2 days) what happens next? What did they mean by the shortlist after I submitted my cv + essay answer in July, and got shortlisted for the next round on Monday.

Goldman Sachs — 2 weeks after interview, still “under consideration.

I interviewed for an entry-level backend Analyst position at Goldman Sachs about 14 days ago. From what I understand, they’re hiring to fill multiple backend positions rather than just one opening.
I felt like the interview went pretty well, but I didn’t hear anything afterward. I followed up with recruiting, and 2 days ago they replied saying that I’m still under consideration and that they’ll provide an update when they have one.

It’s now been two weeks since the interview. Has anyone had a similar experience with Goldman Sachs, especially for entry-level/backend roles? Is being “under consideration” after 2 weeks normal when they’re hiring multiple people, or does this usually mean they’re waiting on their first-choice candidates?

Would especially appreciate hearing from anyone who interviewed with Goldman and eventually received an offer after waiting 2+ weeks.
Am I cooked or should I still have some hope? 😭

Summer analyst return offer

Hi,

I was a summer analyst in GBM Ops. I got a return offer, but I would have to move from NY to SLC. I want to attempt to negotiate my salary before signing my offer. I understand that there is a high possibility that it will be shut down. Do you guys have any tips?

Interview status complete.

I've completed my first interview (not counting the screening) a week ago for an analyst position. I haven't heard anything back yet, but the status of my application says, "Interview Complete". Am I cooked?

Goldman Sachs OA

I recently got an OA invite for summer analyst.

I'm a international student (for the coutry I applied to), Will GS sponsor visa etc if selected?
Also, is it possible that the OA invite link automatically triggered or GS always sends OA after selecting a profile?

23F Moving to Richardson – Best Apartments/Areas Near CityLine for Young Professionals + Looking for Female Roommate

Hi everyone! I’m moving to Richardson soon for work near 1011 Galatyn Pkwy and would really appreciate apartment/area recommendations from people familiar with Richardson.

I’m 23F and currently looking around Galatyn Park / CityLine, but I’m open to nearby areas too. Since I’m new to Dallas, I’d ideally like to live somewhere that has other young professionals and is lively/social, with cafes, restaurants, bars or things to do nearby on evenings and weekends. I don’t want to end up somewhere that feels completely dead after work 😅

What I’m looking for:

  • Ideally $1,300–$1,400/month for my share
  • Open to a studio/1BR OR a 2BR with a female roommate
  • Definitely open to connecting with potential female roommates around my age
  • Furnished would be a big plus, but not mandatory
  • Safe area with good apartment management
  • Walkable to DART or an easy commute to Galatyn Park
  • Ideally somewhere I can manage without immediately buying a car
  • Restaurants, coffee shops, grocery stores, etc. nearby
  • Most importantly, somewhere with a younger/livelier atmosphere where it’s easy to go out, meet people and have things to do on weekends

I’ve been looking at Junction at Galatyn Park, Axis 110, Anthem CityLine, The Standard at CityLine, and Foundation at CityLine, but I’m not sure whether Galatyn Park or CityLine would be better socially.

Would you recommend CityLine, Galatyn Park, or another nearby neighborhood for someone in their early 20s? Any apartment complexes you’d strongly recommend or avoid?

Also, if you're a female looking for a roommate around CityLine/Galatyn Park, feel free to DM me!

Thank you!!

Possible interview outcome?

I recently went through the interview loop at Goldman Sachs. My last interview with the MD was two days ago, but I haven’t heard anything from HR yet. Does this mean it’s a silent rejection?

Prime Brokerage Client Services to more FO trading/banking seat

Just graduated and started. Currently in PB (covering smaller clients/client services type role) & want a more traditional PB seat or other client facing sales seat (in Equities or not). Also wondering if it would be possible or smart for me to go for a trading/ capital markets/banking seat as well.

I know grass is always greener but | want something different to my current role and would rather do something about it now rather than later (while the narrative for change is still there). I have a decent-ish alumni base although it's not Harvard/Yale.

Is this best achieved through a lateral slot or leverage the top BB name to look elsewhere?

In the meantime do I build on my hobbies?

Max out leetcode? CFA?How many chats should I have a week?

I just don't know how to approach it cause this is the first time since 12th grade I don't know what/how to do it. Any input is appreciated

Looking at internal mobility

Currently sitting in a BO role that I don’t enjoy. I have been interested in treasury since I joined GS but have been hearing a lot about the financial crimes compliance team which is making me curious. I haven’t heard of anyone moving from my current org to either one of those which leads me to think that’s not a normal transition. If anyone has a moment to answer a couple questions that would be greatly appreciated.

  1. What is your work life balance like?
    [I’m not opposed to longer days I just like to know what I’m up against]
  2. Any PTO blackout dates?
  3. I hear the Dallas teams are favorited over any other location…any truth or insight to this?
  4. Is there any collaborations with other teams on a regular basis?
  5. How is the headcount in your team?

Please feel free to send me a message if responsible on the thread is too public for you.

Back office to front office

If I do a placement year in a back office role such as Operations in GS, once I graduate could I apply to front office roles within Goldman Sachs or would it be harder to do so?

Looking for a referral at GS internship

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a referral for an Analyst role Internship within Goldman Sachs Wealth Management
I have just completed a M&A internship but want to further explore different divisions.
I completely understand that referrals involve trust, so if you’re only comfortable referring people you’ve spoken to first, I’d be more than happy to have a conversation.If anyone working at Goldman Sachs Wealth Management (or Goldman more broadly) would be willing to help or point me in the right direction, I’d be extremely grateful.

Thank you!

thinking about joining from JPMC?

took internal mobility and hate the role and cant switch prior to a year without manager approval.

biggest issues are work life balance and the actual work (hate it, don't understand it, not interested in it) is it really that bad at GS? this is my second role at jpmc and the previous one had amazing wlb, regular 8 am to 5 pm. i am not in finance. i am in tech.

negotiating salary for an analyst position?

hi so I was a summer intern and just received a verbal return offer. but the salary is quite low… lower than average on Glassdoor for my division and lower than what I see for analyst offers on this page.

the actual offer hasn’t arrived yet, so I didn’t ask about negotiating - the recruiter did not ask my salary expectation, just told me the salary outright.

is it possible to negotiate when I receive the offer letter?

maybe the salary is lower because I’m an undergrad campus hire, but still, it’s a bit surprising, especially compared to what other entry level roles for undergrads are offering in the industry.

Product Analyst interview update

Hey Fam!

So recently I had an opportunity to sit with team for 2 rounds for an open Product analyst position. And I am sure from what I know from conversations that there is only one position.

And I currently work with big company where I had worked on what GS is looking for in current position and I have very strong base on the technicalities. I felt like the interviews went very smooth and lot of content exchange with all of the panel. And I am very Satisfied with what I had delivered.

And in the end even one of the panel members said that he will talk to hcm about next steps. Is this a positive sign?

Its been exactly 8 days since my last round, I didn’t hear anything yet, I am wondering do they really take that much time in finalising a candidate and in my portal it shows interview complete, is there a chance for me to have more rounds??

Based on your knowledge on this please give the honest response on what you felt.

Thanks much!!
Looking forward.

Goldman sachs VP bonus expectations

About to receive VP offer with Goldman Sachs Dallas location. This is with engineering back office division. I haven't received final numbers yet. Appreciate any insights into salary breakup . Base + bonus. How much can we push on base for Dallas location

For those at GS or who've left - realistically, what does VP bonus land at in a normal year? Is it actually close to what gets discussed verbally during offer negotiation, or does it tend to come in lower once review time hits? Trying to figure out if I should weight this as real comp or something I can't count on
