I went through their S&T interviews and first round was mostly fit. A few technicals like what do you think of the market and what is DB stock trading at, but mostly it was shootin the sh!t with the guys about my life. But that was just my experience. 2nd rounds, however, i got kinda grilled...though I found that to be the standard format around most banks.

 

Did you happen to interview at the NY office and was it for global banking? I have my superday next Thursday and was curious how I should prepare for it and what I should expect. I would appreciate any insight and I wish you the best of luck during this hectic time. Thanks.

 
wutangfinancialTo those who got interviews, do you go to a target?

No.

But they are recruiting on-campus, so I figured, why the hell not?

 

Let's see...reading my corporate finance textbook to get refreshed on the basics.

Reading the Vault and WSO interview guides (worth the $9, I must add).

Mostly, I'm just trying to study for my midterm on Saturday and relax so I can be coherent and put together during the interview.

Not one technical.

We just kind of sat there and chatted.

It was pretty cool.

And she said, "Thank you so much for being here!" about 3 or 4 times.

Is this SOP? Are they trained to be that effusive over somebody they're interviewing?

Whatever...I just hope I make it to round 2 in NYC.

:-)
