Interview
Applied online mid-October and received email from recruiter end of October asking to setup 2 phone interviews. Didn't actually speak to recruiter so had very little information other than job description posted. Had two 30-min phone interviews with senior managers 2.5 weeks later. Both were in different locations and gave me a high level overview of the departments they were in. Apparently, I found out that there wasn't a specific role they were trying to fill as they had immediate needs across many different departments and were trying to find the appropriate fit for each. Calls went well. Both individuals were easy to talk to. Two weeks later they requested to setup 3 video interviews. Again, folks in different offices and different departments. Very conversational based but personable. A few days later I get a call from the recruiter telling me that they will be making an offer and to expect it by the following day. Don't receive anything but get another phone call telling me that they now want to do another round of video interviews to make sure both parties are comfortable. I was told to expect to hear back on scheduling. Two weeks pass and I don't hear anything so sent a follow up email but receive no response at all.
To have 2 phone interviews, 5 video interviews, be informed to expect and offer only to have that statement then retracted is odd. They seem very disconnected internally.
As a potential candidate for employment, this process was long and tedious and required significant time to conduct the interviews on both sides. While that is completely understandable, there should at least be proper follow-up by the internal recruitment team as to the delay or change in direction, etc.

Question 1
What do you consider to be your biggest strength? Weakness?
Can you tell me a little bit about a project or deliverable that had less than favorable results and how you handled it?
Interview turned up on site actually went quite well. Was one on one, went quite smoothly. Interviewer was really polite and I honestly thought I am in for a chance here to get the job.
I got ghosted after two weeks. Absolute radio silence.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BNY (London, England) in Feb 2026
Interview
Phone interview with HR who just ask a few motivational questions. They call unscheduled. Then a competency/motivational interview with someone in the team. Afterwards, a case study interview where they talk through a scenario that is likely to occur in your business area. Mine was a graph that I had to talk about and identify the cost drivers and profit drivers. This was really difficult because you cannot prepare for it and the answer really lies in information that I think is quite difficult to know if you've never been in the industry.

What is the difference between organic growth and inorganic growth?
Interesting and there were a total of 3 rounds of interviews, asking basic questions as well as giving scenario based questions to ask. Overall process was a full day and it was quite interesting
