I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Macquarie Group (New York, NY) in Oct 2011
Interview
Interviewer a tad intimidating, he started off by asking behavioral questions, why macquerie, why banking, and then he started asking me brain teasers like, square root 100000, what's 99*99, etc... Then he asked me what are the news I am following, and asked me which class I like most. He also asked me which specific division I want to work in, I think I screwed on this one...
It went well, three rounds, some qualitative, some quantitative. It was generally easy but the analysts were a little tougher than the senior guys. overall, the interviews were okay. It was conducted through video rather than in-person or on the phone.
Behavioral and technical both were with analyst and associate. Basic and no surprises and over zoom. 45 min each. I found out about the interview about 5 days before interviewing.
