HCM at Goldman Sachs
Accepted Offer – Interviewed in New York, NY Jul 2010 – Reviewed Mar 26, 2011
Interview Details – This was a great interview process. Everything happened really quickly. I received follow up right away and my interviews were scheduled immediately. Initially I was interviewed by a recruiter, then I went to the office for a super day and had 3 back to back interviews. The next day I received a call with some positive feedback and was asked for my availability for a phone interview. The interviews were knowledge and behavior based questions. Even though the total number of interviews is a lot the process is really efficient.
