Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso William Blair
Colloquio
Phone interview with an Associate/VP in the office, followed by an in-person 5-6 round interview (superday). Everyone I spoke with was extremely nice and friendly, and they seemed to have a great office culture. Be prepared, technical questions were quite difficult. Also be prepared to talk about trends in the market, any companies and their transactions that you have been following, and why you want to do investment banking.

Nothing out of the ordinary: Why William Blair? Why Investment Banking? Why this sector? Any particular deals we’ve worked on?

Colloquio
First round mix of standard investment banking technicals and then some behavioral questions about a recent deal that you liked, and material events to test your market knowledge. Overall, wasn't too bad but didn't make it to the next round.
