"Group Interview"

Hello everyone, applied to a banking internship and for a first round I am told that I will be part of a "group interview". Anyone had something like this before? Any tips how to stand out?

Investment Banking Career Roadmap (optional)

“Isabelle is a great professional with strong, relevant experience. She went through the IB recruiting process herself, so her advice was concrete rather than generic. We aligned quickly on what I should be prioritising to break into investment banking, and she gave me clear next steps: target spring weeks, build an Excel tracker of key banks and companies, practise interviews regularly, and get the technicals and financials airtight. Above all, she stressed that consistent hard work is what makes the difference. I left the session with a clear plan and more confidence about the process.”

Investment Banking Short Resume Review / Recap

“The session was very helpful particularly the detailed review of my CV and the discussion of networking strategies. My mentor gave practical suggestions on how to present my experience more clearly and make my bullet points more relevant to investment banking. I also appreciated the advice on identifying contacts and writing more personalised outreach messages. The only improvement would be to leave little more time for concrete networking examples and a clearer list of next steps after the call.”
