Trainee Interview - Generalist
(1) Online application: in English, around 1 hr to complete, pretty standard for U.S. / U.K. pattern. One thing that was interesting was a request for "favorite finance career" indication, that was later used in the interview process. I selected a career path without giving it much thought and that caused a bit of confusion later on.
(2) Online tests: (I) Economic / Finance knowledge, 20 questions of multiple choice, and (II) Portuguese, also 20 questions. Not extremely difficult but without any skills in finance and/or language, probably hard to pass.
The Finance test was set for 120 min. which really meant you could google the answers: and I think it was the part of the process, not exactly knowing the answers as being able to look them up
(3) Behavioral interview with HR: around 1 hr of phone interview. Classical behavioral set of questions, 100% in Portuguese. My language skills were mediocre at the time but it was ok for them. I was informed about the positive outcome of the interview already at the end of the call.
(4) Final Interview with BTG Partners. Mine was a conference call NY - Rio. Each Partner would ask pretty basic questions about my interests in Brazil, outlook on their economy, and interests in banking / finance. No real pressure or technical question (which is the case for Brazilian candidates).
