Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some insights into what you might expect in your upcoming interview:

  1. Behavioral Questions:

    • "Tell me about yourself."
    • "Why do you want to work at BMO?"
    • "Describe a time you faced a problem and took the initiative to solve it."
  2. Technical Questions:

    • Be prepared to discuss financial concepts such as DCF (Discounted Cash Flow), as mentioned in the "Summer Internship Prep Help" thread.
    • Review the 400 questions guide for a comprehensive list of potential technical questions.
  3. Current Events and Market Knowledge:

    • Stay updated on recent M&A activities and general business news. Subscribing to sources like MorningBrew and Sorkin's Dealbook can be helpful, as suggested in the "Beginner Interview Prep Tips" thread.

Good luck with your interview!

BMO junior here chiming in, can confirm none of the kids I interviewed this week “aced” their interviews.

Talent pool was very underwhelming to say the least.

 

Just did my final 30min round with cap/d. Anyone know when we should expect to hear back?
