Based on the most helpful WSO content, Lazard's video interviews typically consist of five questions with two minutes allocated for each response. Common questions include:

  1. An incident where you learned about your weakness.
  2. Why investment banking?
  3. Why Lazard?
  4. How you can contribute to the firm.
  5. Something interesting about yourself.

The feedback from previous candidates suggests that the questions are straightforward and focus on behavioral and motivational aspects. If you feel like you struggled, remember that confidence and authenticity often matter as much as the content of your answers. Many users have shared that being genuine and composed can leave a positive impression, even if you feel you didn't perform perfectly. Good luck!
