lot of quantative questions BSmodel pricing, Greek...mental math question, why trader, probability, linear algebra question, a little bit code questions, not very harsh, they want to know how far you can go
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at BNP Paribas in Oct 2014
Interview
Applied through on campus recruiting. First round was on campus, consisted of 90min interviews (2 separate interviews, both contained behavioral and case questions). The cases were pretty straightforward (one was find why profits fell, the other was a brain teaser).
The interviewers said that CIB consulting NA is quite new (NYC office was established only in 2013), so there are only 15 people currently working there. The first interviewer had a thick french accent, but was fairly nice, the second interviewer was a Chinese lady who had better English, but was quite mean (the usual stuff, like checking the phone etc.)

I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at BNP Paribas (Bengaluru)
Interview
Initially got call from consultancy, it took 1 month to get profile shortlisted. After that it took hardly 1 week to process all interviews. First round was technical telephonic, second was techno managerial, third was managerial, HR was last round.
Quite impressive all over process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
All questions was under related technical area. Good technical questions, technical people were very friendly and gentle while asking questions. Second technical round started with advanced technical questions coz they were knowing that candidate has cleared first basic technical round so they did not ask same set of questions which was quite awesome in general interview process.
All round was good, HR round went long tough.
But overall Great team of interview panel.
