I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Macquarie Group (New York, NY)
Interview
On campus recruiting like all other banks, then first round interviews on campus with a girl from HR or a relatively junior person, then took some ridiculously long assessment test, then final round superday at the company office (3-4 interviews, 30 min each). They did draw out the process a lot longer than I would have liked, but they gave me two weeks to decide and let me pick my start date the following summer.

Question 1
Why do you want to work specifically at Macquarie? (didn't know much about the firm when I applied)
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Macquarie Group (Sydney) in Jun 2026
Interview
Fast to get an interview time setup, took a month to go get feedback afterwards. Unsure if financial year has delayed the process.Only 1 round held online which was surprising, expected multiple interviews rounds online and in person

Question 1
Behavioral question, not much technical
How to handle pressure and prioritize workload etc
I applied online. I interviewed at Macquarie Group
Interview
The interview took ages, like 2 months, and it was unexpected. Total 6 rounds of interviews, and after the final round, the hr just ghosted you tho they said they'd provide updates soon. After all the hard work, communication, preparation and making it to the final round, you thought you at least deserved some feedback, but they just ignored you. Very disrespectful.
I had a really nice interview with them, they asked about my experience and told me about their requirements and a team, but after that I never heard back. It’s strange how sometimes a great conversation can simply end in silence.
