I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Berenson (New York, NY) in Oct 2011
Interview
I applied online and the 1st round is on campus. I met with one VP (staffer) and one new analyst. All fit questions. Since I had last internship at a big bank, the VP asked me if get the return offer and I said no. I guess this is the turning point for me. The new analyst just get into the bank for less than 3 months, does not seem know much about the business and the questions from her are not interesting neither. After like 15 mins, the VP said he has no question want to ask me and I knew I was not good fit at that time. So the rest of the interview is just me asking them questions.

Question 1
How do you describe you analytical skill? Good, average or bad.
Pretty straight forward interview process. Asked a few technical questions and then a lot of behavioral questions. The first interview is with an analyst and then you got to a VP.
3 rounds then a superday. First round was technical, next two were behavioral, and the superday was a mix. Overall these guys had a pretty large ego on display
Never heard back. Ultimately ghosted.

Interview
Interviewer was rude, asked questions about Entourage and flexed New York Times Crossword scores. Basically threw resume in the trash and said would rather be working. Would not recommend to anyone.
