I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at BNP Paribas (London, England) in Nov 2024
Interview
Short phone interview which felt like the interviewer simply going through a checklist as opposed to listening to my responses. It was the final round before offers were to be decided and it was slightly nerve wracking.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is a current event in the news that could impact banking?
It was a 30 mins zoom call. They were asking questions about my cv, previous work experience, why I choose my degree, what I'm passionate about, why them, commercial awareness etc
Asked around 6 behavioural questions, typical things for a spring week. No technical knowledge required although they asked for a story in markets that you are interested in. Good luck
It was OT with shapes (it's easy once you get a few practice in) and then an a phone interview, general stuff like behavorial questions and questions relating to the company's values, eg. sustainability and renewable energy.
