Goldman Sachs Merchant Banking - Off-cycle Internship

Hi all,

I have recently been invited to the first stage Hirevue Interview with GS MB in London, for an off-cycle internship.

I was wondering whether any of you can shed some light on the exact types of questions that would be asked both in the Hirevue and the subsequent face-to-face interviews?

Since this is an off-cycle internship, would you generally expect the questions to be more technical (as they want you to know your stuff, rather than them training you in a structured summer analyst program)?

Thanks
