PWM Interview Questions for GS & JPM

I'm starting my Junior year this fall and networking to hopefully get a few interview opportunities for a summer 2023 internship at Goldman and JPM.

In preparation for interviews, I'd love to compile a list of any questions people have received during their interviews, thanks!

Very behavioral and mostly fit. Some markets focussed questions like, "walk me around the world" or "how has X index performed YTD and what are some factors to that" I asked people about multiples certain industries had - not specific, but broad strokes. 

Asset allocation questions are common - how would you allocate $100M today?

 

In general, WM questions are mostly behavioral. So questions such as "why WM?", "Why this firm", etc. Rarely any technicals, you mostly have to convey that you have sales/entrepreneurship experience, interest in finance and interest in wealth management. Have excellent people skills and be able to show that through the interviews because they want to be able to see if you're someone who can actually hold a conversation and be enthusiastic and likeable since it'll show how you will be able to talk to clients. So in general, just show your interest for the role, any sales experience and be someone the interviewers like and enjoy having a conversation with.
