I applied online. I interviewed at Wells Fargo in Mar 2024
Interview
Simple and fast. Coding assessment on HackerRank and then a behavioral interview with a smaller panel. Some technical questions too but nothing crazy. They were fast and let me know where I was at each point of the process.

Investment banking (IB) interviews are rigorous, multi-round processes focusing on technical proficiency, behavioral fit, and high endurance. They typically start with screening calls followed by multiple, 30–45 minute one-on-one interviews with junior and senior bankers (Associates, VPs) designed to test your finance knowledge, mental stamina, and ability to handle intense pressure.

Scenario based questions.
Round 1 could be a skill and domain test but round 2 onwards a scenario based one. Domain knowledge will help you ease through first round. Practice with scenario based questions before you go for a Wells Fargo interview
