Category 1: Telling Your Story
Category 2: “Fit” Questions
Category 3: Deals, Markets, and Companies
Category 4: Technical Questions and Answers
Ho presentato la mia candidatura di persona. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso William Blair (Londra, Inghilterra) nel mese di feb 2026
Colloquio
Initial screen by HR. Then may rounds of interviews. Case study, followed by more interviews. Majority in person at their office. Provide shallow feedback, and are unresponsive to follow ups.

Nothing out of the ordinary: Why William Blair? Why Investment Banking? Why this sector? Any particular deals we’ve worked on?
Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso William Blair (New York, NY)
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.
