First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at SEB AB.
Sustainable Banking Analyst
The interview process started with a first-round that was mostly behavioural and motivational questions. The second round involved a 45-minute case study on a sustainability project. The interviewer led this part with 5 questions, and I had 2 minutes to prepare before each one. Finally, there was a call with the hiring manager.
- How might SEB enhance its sustainability standing?
- Could you tell me about a weakness you have?
Intern
The interview was about 40 minutes with my two direct bosses. It was pretty casual since it was an internship in innovation, so no technical questions were asked. Instead, they wanted to see how I could navigate concepts. We also discussed my responsibilities if I were to be hired.
- Could you introduce yourself and discuss your past experiences?
- What motivated you to apply for this position, and why do you think you'd be a good fit?
Analyst
The interview process involved a single round that was split into two parts. The first part was a 30-minute fit section where they asked basic questions about my resume and background, building on my previous answers. The second part was a 20-minute technical section focusing on financial statements, like explaining the components of a cash flow statement and discussing valuation multiples for a company such as KONE.
- What is SEB's role with its clients?
- Could you explain the components of a cash flow statement?
- If you were to invest in a company like KONE, what financial multiples would you consider?
Digital Experience Manager
So there was a recruiter call first, then I talked to the hiring manager. After that, I had to do a case study. The final round was an interview with both the hiring manager and the head of customer experience. It was a decent process overall, but sadly I didn't get the job because they ended up going with someone internal.

- What's your approach when the legal team needs to weigh in on something?
