Interview
Numerical assessment Sonru interview Assessment center Numerical assessment tests basic mathematical skills. Sonru has around 5-8 questions. Approx 1 minute for prep and 2 minute to answer. Assessment center has 2 interviews testing technical and behavioural skills.
Summer Intern program for the COO department. The process included a Hirevue, online tests (30 minutes, personality and aptitude), and then two video call interviews. These were with different team MDs, mid-seniority. Questions required knowledge of investment banking workflows and process, minimal financial technicals.
It was pretty straightforward and the questions were practical and what you would expect. They asked a lot about my resume. They were very welcoming. I was told there would be two rounds but there was only one.
