Based on the most helpful WSO content, there doesn't seem to be a specific forum dedicated solely to Lazard's 2026 Insights program yet. However, similar threads from previous years, like the Lazard SA 2021 Recruiting Thread or the Lazard 2020 Megathread, often discuss HireVue (HV) experiences and program insights.

For HireVue, Lazard typically focuses on behavioral questions and situational judgment scenarios. Common themes include:

  1. Why Lazard? - Be prepared to articulate why you're interested in Lazard specifically, emphasizing its boutique culture, deal exposure, or unique aspects of its advisory work.
  2. Teamwork and Leadership Examples - Questions about how you've worked in teams or led initiatives are common.
  3. Problem-Solving Scenarios - Expect questions that test your ability to handle challenges or conflicts in a professional setting.

If you're looking for insights from last year's participants, you might want to check out threads like the "Lazard SA 2021 Recruiting Thread" or the "Lazard 2020 Megathread" on WSO. These often include tips from candidates who have gone through the process.

For more detailed preparation, consider exploring WSO's IB Interview Course or Mock Interview Services, which can help you refine your responses and boost your confidence.
