I applied online. I interviewed at Macquarie Group (Sydney) in Jun 2024
Interview
After passing the resume review and psychometric assessment stages, I was invited complete a 15 minute phone interview. The interview was purely behavioural and my interviewer was very kind and pleasant. She asked some standard, non-technical questions. She then explained the structure of the internship and gave an overview of the teams accepting interns and asked me which I would be most interested in.
I believe the final stage is an in-person group interview followed by individual interviews with the senior staff after which a final offer is made. To the best of my information, the group interview is non-technical.
I have set the offer status to 'No offer' since I am still going through the interview process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work for Macquarie Group and why are you interested in the position?
What languages/technologies are you familiar with?
Prior to the interview, was given a call and told that the interview would be a strengths and behavior assessment but during the actual interview, they tested technical questions instead.
Extremely unprofessional HR. The HR in the phone interview was saying AC will happen in Oct and will be virtually. In Aug I received an Email which state my AC is in 2 days and will be run in the Sydney office. What a joke. I'm not even in Sydney and they only gave me 2 days notice. I emailed back to reschedule and 5 minutes later received another auto-generated email stated my AC is cancelled without any additional information. No email afterwards. Called the HR, he said he is busy running the AC will give me a callback next week. Then the next week he said all the AC have finished last week.
I get it there are a lot of candidates want to get in, so who cares about a person need to reschedule the AC. What an arrogant company it is.
