Question 1
Tell me about a time you dealt with operational risk and controls
I applied online. The process took 6 days. I interviewed at Barclays in Apr 2019
Interview
2 Rounds of phone interviews, not incredibly technical. I applied online and was selected after that. The process was transparent and straightforward even coming from a non-core school. 2 Rounds of phone interviews, not incredibly technical. I applied online and was selected after that.

Started with an HR screening followed by two rounds of interviews with the hiring manager, offer rolled out within 2 weeks of the interview. Positive feedback overall, interview questions maybe analytical in nature.
Amazing, 5 rounds in German language.
Very smooth, quick back to back rounds, and results are quick
HR round, then a Technical round, Then a asseesment round where excel data had to be analysed, then a team fit round, then a director fit round, overall a standard process for any Bank
