First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Standard Bank Group.
Intern
So it was a 2 stage interview process. The first one was with 3 panelists, and the last one was a 1 on 1 session. I honestly found the last one more challenging than the first one. I made it to the background check stage, but then things fizzled out and I got a declined in the end.
- Describe a time you faced a difficult situation or change and how you handled it.
Intern
It was a great interview experience. I had to present a case study I was given to the panel. They asked questions about my thought process when solving the case. Then, they asked some technical questions related to the role, followed by formal questions and asked if I had any questions. The main goal is to understand your thinking patterns and your ability to think on your feet. It was a great experience, I felt comfortable. The key is to just relax and keep the conversation flowing – don't let it be one-sided.
- What advice would you give to businesses from the perspective of a young person?
SAP Graduate Academy
I had an online interview via Microsoft Teams with three friendly panelists who made it a good experience. The chat mostly revolved around my university experiences, with detailed questions about my academic projects and personal initiatives. They were really keen to know how I used my skills in different scenarios, which let me talk about my love for solving problems and my dedication to always learning. It felt more like a good chat than a formal interview.
- Regarding past situations, what choices or actions would you have preferred to manage differently?
