The interview process
Described in candidates’ own words.
“It was a pretty basic phone interview. They asked me why I wanted to work at Goldman Sachs. They also asked some questions about my personality to get a sense of who I am, how I think, and how I usually react in different scenarios. I also had to talk about how I'd handle some made-up situations, which was a chance to show how I solve problems and make decisions.”Candidate-reported process
“It was a 7-question interview that was very difficult and needed knowledge in behavioral capabilities and cultural integration. You should prepare a lot beforehand and find a good place to do it. Taking deep breaths is very important.”Candidate-reported process
“First, they screened my CV. Then, there was a HireVue with typical questions like 'Why Goldman' and 'Pitch a Stock'. After that, a call, and the final round was a 1-hour interview. It took them 5 weeks to get back to me after the Super Day.”Candidate-reported processMore reports lockedRead 300+ more interview experiences
