On the bright side, it's not a no. First, you should definitely interview with the firm. Next, when it comes to interviews with other firms, don't mention anything unless they ask (obviously) and if they do ask, simply state that you had a good summer session, but was told that they wanted you to re-interview. Essentially, be honest and keep your response brief. If you know that they've done this before or do this often, you can mention that. Also, find out if your SA group is bringing on new 1st year analysts, and, if so, how many compared to SA - if they aren't bringing on any or are just bringing on 1 and had like 3 SAs, then there is another reason why you might have to re-interview - just cutting back. It's not the most common situation, but it isn't an interview killer either. Good luck.

I finished my SA stint and after about 2 weeks of waiting was told I did not get an immediate offer but they would like me to interview again at their FT Superday coming up. I received generally positive reviews this summer and as far as I could tell everyone I worked with liked me. When applying to other banks for FT recruiting how do I explain to them this situation without raising too many questions marks? Is this a common industry practice? Thanks in advance. Hi,
