Barclays interview questions

contacted via email by internal recruiter, then scheduled a phone interview with recruiter before being brought in to meet the team. once in house, met with recruiter first to go over interviewing process and was in a conference room doing relay interviews with team. first came one of the managers who was not prepared to interview, continued to rave about current employee and how no one can replace this individual. then met with individual in current position, discussed responsibilities and was thanked for my time. recruiters come back to show me out. polite, quick in and out, about 2 hours.

Round 1 Verbal and numeracy test. Not very hard if you practice SHL before that Round 2 Phone Interview by HR. Questions such as why investment banking? Why Barclays Capital? Why do you think you are suited for this role ? What is your weakest quality and why? What kind of risks do you take? Round 3 Super day at assessment centre: Case Study + an individual presentation. Case Study looked at a client's potential acquisition of a mining company. There is a tendency for assessors to ask about reputation risk, so if you can, prepare sth in advanced abt that. 2 individual interviews. More of a get to know you session and abit of technical competency questions. But nothing really hard. Finished up with a group interview. More of a teamwork thing but be prepared to speak up eloquently. You don't need to give right answers but try to explain your point in detail if possible.
