Mainly competency based. A panel interview with two other executives. Quite formal with questions relating to what I know about Barclays Private Banking division (locations, client worth, role responsibilities, etc'.), how I manage competing priorities, collaborate with others and work autonomously.

Quite swift. initial call then tests which were pretty basic, then critical skills interview with hr base on their 6 critical skills (risk, collboration, tech etc.) Reasons for not getting it was that examples of times i showed 1 of the critical skills was not good enough. harsh in my opinion not really relevant.

Interview
Quite difficult interview questions given not only competency, but also Values are tested. The interview process is quite lengthy and takes few weeks in total. Depending on the team, minimum 2 rounds, can be several rounds meeting team members, managers and bankers.
