I’ve got an IB Superday (financing) at GS next week. It’s only three 20 minute interviews, which seems incredibly short.
Can anyone provide insight to what I should expect? All related threads on this are very old... I know GS did a similar interview process last year so I’d really appreciate insight from anyone who went through that process last year.

Hi Intern in IB-M&A, the silence is deafening, sorry about that.... Any of the threads below helpful?
More suggestions...
Fingers crossed that one of those helps you.
Curious to hear how your superday went
Very structured for me at least not a lot of room for casual conversation.
Lots of behaviorals / ethical questions.
relatively simple, mostly behavioral & experience related questions. May ask 2/3 nuanced technical questions just to check the boxes.
.
Easy Superday compared to other firms. It is very behavioral/fit questions. A lot of "What would you do if..." and "Tell me about a time when..." type of questions. If you are good at having conversations, you'll be fine
