I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BNP Paribas (New York, NY) in Apr 2016
Interview
Initially a phone interview with head of LatAm Securitization group. New group, so was mainly focused on whether I would be willing to work hard to grow a new group. Passed that, then had super day with people from LatAm and U.S. side. Mostly qualitative questions, and only exception was a computer guy who had some funky questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
One guy walked in very disheveled, and quickly asked me to share my opinion of secured paper vs. unsecured paper. He had just been on a call with a client regarding the same issue, so I had to walk through pros and cons of each piece of debt.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at BNP Paribas (Mumbai) in May 2026
Interview
Got a call from third party vendor. After screening interview was scheduled. There was two rounds of interview. First was technical and second was manager round, first was virtual and second was face to face
Great interview process and fast responses. Interviewers were professional and well organised. Beautiful office as well. Would recommend working here.
Three rounds in total, one with hiring manager and two more with senior managements
