Resume Screening: The initial stage involves the screening of resumes or CVs submitted by candidates. Recruiters review the qualifications, experience, and educational background of applicants to shortlist candidates for further evaluation. First-Round Interview: The first-round interview is often conducted over the phone or via video conference. It is typically a behavioral interview focused on assessing a candidate's background, motivation, and fit for the investment banking industry. This interview may also include technical questions to evaluate the candidate's knowledge of finance, accounting, and relevant industry trends. Technical Interviews: Following the first-round interview, candidates who progress to the next stage are usually subjected to one or more technical interviews. These interviews assess a candidate's understanding of financial concepts, valuation methods, accounting principles, and financial modeling skills. Questions may involve analyzing financial statements, conducting valuation analyses, or solving case studies.
