Investment Banking Summer Analyst
General Interview Information
Interview Details
A month later I received an invite to an assessment centre without having done a phone interview. This would take place in London and they would cover transportation and accommodation costs.
There were around 20 people at the assessment centre and we were divided into two rooms. The day began with a SHL numerical test. If you failed this then you would have to leave immediately; a few did.
The next stage was a case study where we had to prepare individually but were then split into groups of 3 or 4 to present to two bankers. There was a write up of the case study after this.
For the final part of the morning session, which they described as essentially the first round, we had a motivational interview which I found very relaxed.
It's possible that they send away more people sometimes but at my particular ac only 1 person left between the morning and afternoon sessions. After lunch we had two business interviews each lasting 30 minutes. These were largely technical.
