Was in the interview process for 4 firms, all of which conducted 3-4 interviews. 1 extended an offer, reached out to the other 3 to pass, then the remaining 3 decided to give offers. Wtf.

Are you here to indirectly brag?

No I'm not trying to brag. I busted my ass trying to get the other 3 to give me some kind of indication, and they all said that I would be interviewing with more people next. The moment that I don't want them, that's when they want me. Interview process = Dating.

Better to be wanted than not. Enjoy the opportunities.

Yep, was just joking. Congrats! What kind of offers are these? Are you moving from MM to BB? Or non-banking offers?

Interviews started between mid November to early December. Got the offer last Wednesday, informed others on Thursday. By this morning already heard back from all 3.

Why did you pass?

^^ I think OP was saying he hadn't heard anything so he was calling to pass when he received the first offer.

Congrats! How soon after saying you'd pass did they give you offer? And what period of time did those original 3-4 interviews occur over?

Wow. That's great! How did you apply? You know ppl at each or just online?

Where at? Tech firm, finance?
