Barclays Risk Summer Analyst Interview - Investment Banking
A few days later I was invited to take a virtual interview, HireVue style, basic behavioral questions: "Why Barclays?", "What motivated you to apply?", etc.. After about three weeks I got a congratulatory email stating I've made it to the last stage and that a recruiter will reach out within a few business days. Got an email and an invite for two 1 on 1 Teams interviews. Once again, strictly behavioral, they asked questions about leadership roles, adversity in the workplace and a time when you had to adjust for risk.
Three weeks later, I'm still waiting for an answer on whether or not I got the interview. The recruiters and interviewers, both Directors of Risk, said that regardless of if you are selected, they will reach out an inform you that you weren't selected via email.
