I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Goldman Sachs (London, England) in Feb 2016
Interview
I was told to expect 4 x 45min interviews but after 2 was informed that the other interviewers were unavailable due to a technical emergency and therefore I'd have to reschedule. At the time I was suspicious but played along. When it came to enquiring about rescheduling the next day I was told that I wouldn't be asked back.
I would have rather been told fairly that I didn't make the grade rather than be lied to. Seemingly not the sort of place I'd want to work.
