First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Goldman Sachs.
Internal Audit Intern
I started with a video interview where I had to answer a couple of questions on camera. After that, I had two 30-minute Zoom calls, one in English and one in Japanese. The process also included a dinner with two other candidates.
- Can you introduce yourself?
- Do you know what Internal Auditing entails?
- What would you like to ask us?
Internal Audit Analyst
It was a Superday with 2 rounds. Each panel had 2 people. They asked a mix of behavioral and technical questions. The interview was mostly centered on your resume, so know your resume really well. Most questions will come from your resume, with a few behavioral ones at the end of each round. There were also some basic technical questions at the end of the round.
- Can you tell us about your work experience?
Internal Audit Analyst
There are 3 stages to the interview. 2 of them are virtual and 1 is in person. Each interview is done by different members of the department. They seem welcoming at first but it escalates really quickly. Lots more technical questions than behavioural ones, so be ready for questions related to your business area.
