Very friendly, good people, very smart and clearly good at what they do. The interviews I had were mostly behavioral and qualitative for the internship position I was being considered for.
1st round informational call, second round behavioral interview with HR, final round was 3 back to back to back interviews with members of different teams. Tone was always welcoming and positive.
I applied online. I interviewed at Barings (London, England) in Oct 2024
Interview
First a telephone interview, questions were motivational, quite conversational and enjoyable. Then an assessment centre at the main office, consisting of three interviews (with various teams) and a networking event.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Varies depending on your background and the team you're interviewing with. Lots of questions around CV. Very basic case study with little required knowledge. Not too technical unless you mention something, then be prepared to expand on it a lot. They will push you until you can't answer something.
