Interview Details

What did the interview consist of?
Group Interview
Background Check
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
Standard target school hiring process: Info-sessions, coffee chats, resume drop on school and company sites, on campus interview. Differences from typical process: no phone interview, attended pre-interview social w/ drinks and hors d'oeuvres to see who shines or acts a fool, some West Coast groups were able to extend offers after 2 on 1 first rounds, no superday or sell-day (may have changed this year).

Junior bankers were very helpful during the recruiting process: coffee chats, insights, referrals to others, etc. Advice: be yourself and shine at the pre-interview social; don't worry about the group choice force rank you have to submit; express what you want, but don't lock yourself into one group/location and out of an opportunity.

People were very nice and down to earth during the interview process. On the job: sharp, hardworking, yet helpful teams; rather flat organization w/ access to senior bankers; decent work/life balance depending on the deals you're on (less balance = better transactions though).
