Candidatei-me por meio de recrutador(a). Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Jefferies.
Entrevista
Pretty typical for an IB. Technical questions depend on what group you are applying for. If you don't know your technicals or can't hold a conversation, you're screwed. Make sure you do your research on the company and the group beforehand, and be up to date on M&A news in general.
Smooth, kind, technical
People interviewing me were generally kind, wanted to really know who I am and at the same time wanted to know if I was really interested in equity

Process was organized. The conversation was fast-paced but conversational, reflecting the culture of Sales & Trading.
Interviewer focused on market knowledge, behavioral questions, and a little technical understanding of equities and macro trends. They were clearly assessing both technical competence and personality fit, especially comfort with high-pressure environments and strong communication skills.
Overall, the experience felt competitive but fair
