Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's what you need to know about the Pymetrics test:

  • Invitation Timing: The invitation to the Pymetrics tests should be sent to you after submitting your application.
  • Purpose: Pymetrics applies AI to predict job performance based on complex neuroscience data. It uses unbiased algorithms to build a cognitive and emotional trait profile of a company's top performers to source and screen potential talent.
  • Test Approach: The tests should be treated the same as any other psychometric test. Focus on both speed and accuracy when completing the tests.
  • Results: While there are no right or wrong results, there are favorable profiles. The closer you score to their ideal candidate, the better.

For more detailed advice and preparation tips, you might want to check out the Investment Banking Interview Guide and the Investment Banking Interview Course available on WSO.

That exam was awful. Really damn tricky with intense time pressure for the math, and the behavioral stuff was so dumb. It asked you to rank the same things in 100 different combinations.

 

Got one math question wrong (realized immediately after submitting it fml) and don’t think I did well on the final recommendation. Did pretty well on everything else

 

Got waitlisted for Brooklyn final round...anyone have a sense as to what my chances are to get off the waitlist? Really unfortunate as I think I did well on the live case but made a couple of small mistakes on the chatbot. Thanks!

 

Thanks so much for the info. I wrote them back saying that I’m interested in being placed on the waitlist - is there anything else that your friend did beyond a straightforward interest email? Really hoping to get this final round as BCG is my top choice. Thanks again!

 

anybody else get offered a mock case by an associate from the office you're interviewing at? got one shortly after my R2 invite was sent. was just wondering i this was a good sign TT

 

congrats! must be an incredible feeling

what was 2nd round like for you compared to 1st? have my final coming up too
