Bank of America London Global Markets (S&T) Summer Internship Assessment Centre – any advice / questions asked?

Hi all,

I’ve just been invited to the Bank of America assessment centre for Global Markets Sales & Trading summer internship in London. The invite says it’ll be two interviews, one competency and one technical.

Has anyone done this year’s AC yet? Or if you’ve been through it in previous years, I’d really appreciate any advice. In particular:

Questions asked: what came up in the competency and technical interviews?

Technical depth: was it mostly markets knowledge (rates, FX, equities, macro, recent news), or more maths/brainteasers and pricing questions?

Competency: standard “tell me about a time…” questions, or more motivational stuff like “why S&T”, “why BofA” and “sales or trading”?

Pitching: did they ask you to pitch a stock or trade idea?

I’d greatly appreciate any help as this is my first ever AC! I really am not super technical so if anyone knows what technical questions they asked I’d be super grateful thank you 🙏
