Interview language at regional BB offices

I applied for several off-cycle internships at BBs at one of their regional offices (think France/Italy/Spain/Netherlands/Germany).

If I get an interview, is this typically conducted in English or in the regional language? It is a global bank, the business language is English, fluency in the local language is required but I want to know if the interviews will also be in that language or rather just in English. I am fluent in the regional language where I applied, just asking so I can be better prepared.

If anyone has experience interviewing at regional European BB/EB offices, I appreciate your insights.

 

As far as I know, normal interviews are 80% local language 20% English (for local candidates), dont know if this changes on foreigners. local language absolute fluency is mandatory though
