Barclays Capital: Operations (internship)
The wannabe operations intern didn't supply his answers to a recent telephone interview with Barclays Capital, but here are 10 of the questions he received (in no particular order):
-Why Investment Banking?
-Why Operations?
-Any other applications/offers made?
-Describe a story in the financial press which interests you?
-Describe a time you have communicated effectively with someone?
-Describe a time you were under pressure to complete something with approaching deadlines?
-Describe a time you were part of a team and what was your role in the team?
-How do the current market conditions affect operations?
-What other things are you involved in outside of university?
-Why did you choose to study (your subject) at university?
These questions were provided to us by a candidate claiming to have interviewed at the institution named above. We cannot guarantee that these were the actual questions asked.
