Interviewed May 2010 in New York, NY (took 3 weeks)
initially had 3 phone calls. basic background questions and why you're interested in investment banking. then went to their office in New York for four one-on-one interviews of about 30 minutes each. some interviewers seemed more interested in business experience, calculus skills, financial analysis and accounting skills more than others. some very specific questions about financial statements. others were more interested in motivation and personality type.

Interviewed Dec 2011 (took a day)
The interview was conducted by a Vice President of the Investment Banking Division, his questions were not that specific, I spoke most of the time about what I wrote on my CV, both academic and professional experience, I was interrupted once in a while to give more details about something I was saying. It took about an hour.

Interviewed Dec 2010 in London, England (United Kingdom) (took a day)
There are four 1:1 interviews with 2 MDs, 1 VP and 1 analyst. The interview with the analyst is based on your writen test. The writen test is taken before the interviews: it describes a situation where you must make a financial choice. You should justify your choice because the information given is incomplete.

Interviewed Mar 2008 in New York, NY (took 2 days)
I was first contacted by phone and thats where I had my initial interview. They basically just wanted to hear from me where I`d studied. Later on they asked me to come in for 1:1 interview. Actually there were two people sitting in the room but one guy was just observing. They asked what I was expecting and if I`m a team player. All in all the second interview lasted no more than 30min. They than asked me if I had any other offers or if I was seeking a job opportunity elsewhere. I told them I had another offer and was waiting to hear from them. Three days later they sent me an offer which I accepted.
