I applied online. I interviewed at Goldman Sachs in Aug 2025
Interview
Had 3 back-to-back interviews with individual members of the team. Discussed about past experiences and how I'd be able to contribute to the role. Didn't hear back from the recruiter despite following up.
Elaborative, long, very situation-based and case-based. Ask random questions to test your mental ability and presence of mind. However, they were very kind and patient with your answers. Always write a thank-you email.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell about a time when you helped you team lead solve an issue that he was having difficulty in? How did you manage the dynamics after that?
Very technical interview that asked about equity valuations, how to calculate discounted cash flows, weighted average cost of capital, enterprise value, and what is happening in the financial markets. It was a great experience overall.
7+ rounds - with 2 different people in each round, motivational / competency questions + some market related and technical questions. varies by role but you need to really understand "Why GS"
