      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Bank of America (New York, NY) in Oct 2017

      Interview

      The first round of interviews done via video software. There were only 5 questions and were generally behavioral. The next round was Superday interviews and entailed three back to back interviews with two analyst per interview. Questions were almost all behavioral and very much resume based. There were not brain teaser questions, and very few technical questions. I was asked to pitch a stock and was asked a bunch of market based questions.

      Interview

      Applied online, then had a telephone interview followed by an assessment centre which involved a group activity, a presentation exercise and two interviews. General questions involving mathematical brain teasers, estimate the tie revenue in the US, if you had £100,000 where would you invest it. The presentation was a stock pitch of your choice to either long or short, or to suggest a portfolio of several investments you think would increase in value over the next year.
