GS IB - long phone interview - short in-person interview?

Long time reader of WSO, first time posting.

summer internship recruiting is currently happening on campus right now. I'm a little nervous because I have never interviewed with these major banks.

I'm a little bit confused because the GS recruiter contacted me with a phone interview slot and told me to leave about 1.5 hours for it. The day after, I'm signed up for an in-person interview with GS on-campus but that only lasts 20-30 minutes.

Has anyone had similar experiences like this? If you could shed some light on this interview process, that would be greatly appreciated.

At the end of the day, trust your gut. Who cares if anyone else had the same experience. Did you make the interviewer laugh? Did they drill you? Did they seem bored? Were you awkward? Analyze your interview and come to a conclusion. Like I previously mentioned, trust your gut.

Honestly, do you think it went well?

Thanks for your input!
