scr879

What is the ratio is like, say 10 phone screens to 5 face interviews to 1 offer?

Is that about right?

So true. I got nothing from local AM shops in ATL but got callbacks from bulge brackets and went several rounds in the following phone interviews.

Job searches, applications, interviews, etc... are so incredibly random. I've had interviews with JPM, GS, and MS for virtually the same exact positions with lower tier/boutique firms for which I didn't even receive a courtesy email ding. Jobs are funny.

Luck is 50% of the battle. Maybe HR is an alum of your school, they're in a good mood one day, they share your passion for Jai alai, etc...

100-200 resumes: 30 phone interviews: 10 first rounds: 2-3 final rounds: 1 offer

Phone close was pretty good for me, maybe like 10:7:1 or 2.

Now, app's to phone interviews would be pretty high - maybe 30:10 - but I applied blindly for a lot of good jobs and never heard back besides the flush...

I usually go with 100 call backs - 10 interviews - 1 offer
