Has anyone done the Blackstone pymetrics?
After submitting my resume for the Global Finance and Business Management full time position at JP Morgan (my dream job!), I got a HireVue invite the next day! However, I completed it 9 days ago and still have no response....
When do we get a response in average, and after how much time does it mean I probably am not getting an offer to continue?
Thanks!

I think it’s definitely in bounds to ask to see the company financials if you’re being hired into a corp fin job with the expectation of taking over CFO. Also ask about any past or current litigation, you’ll find huge red flags there if there’s any.
I used to work for a small firm (peaked at 12 employees) lawsuits that the company initiated drove it to bankruptcy and ultimately litigation. Other than that, ask about culture, it’s much more important at a small firm. Are people genuinely friends with each other? Do they have each others backs?
Also find out who the principal owner(s) is(are) and what their plans for the business are (I.e. their working relationship and succession plans, whether they have key man insurance, etc). the place described above had two principal owners and in the end they detested each other and were making decisions independent of one another. It was clearly a recipe for disaster.
