Behavioral Technical

Started with a presentation of my profile and how it fits the role, followed by questions about past experiences and academic projects. Then, there was a Q&A session on some technical points. The interview wrapped up with a question or two for the recruiters (who were professionals in my case, not HR).

Behavioral Case Presentation

The interview had two parts: First, a personality interview focusing on past experiences, motivations, and how the internship fits into your career plan. Second, a real-world case study where you analyze a file for about ten minutes and then present your findings to the interviewers. This part tests your ability to give an opinion on the financial health of a company and its assumed business sector.

Behavioral Technical Other

the recruitment process started with a call from an HR provider, then there was an operational interview, a personality test, a written test (partly in English), an HR interview, and finally a management interview. Unfortunately, I didn't receive a rejection email despite being far along in the long recruitment process, which took 2-3 months.

Behavioral Technical Other

The job title is 'regulatory reporting correspondent.' There was one 10-minute phone call with HR, followed by a 40-minute phone call with the functional manager. Then, two in-person interviews with functional managers, each lasting 2 hours. This was followed by two written tests in French/English (1 hour), a personality test (40 minutes), a debrief with an external firm (1 hour), and a final in-person interview with HR (1 hour). All of this took place over 3 months, and I received a very informal rejection by email, with no explanation or feedback.

  • How do you handle priorities?
  • How do you manage team conflicts, specifically regarding the 'cadre/non cadre' qualifications?
