      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (New York, NY) in Nov 2011

      Interview

      Applied online, was contacted for a phone interview. Phone interview went very well, organized a trip to New York office for super day. Met with 3 upper level individuals. Interviews went very well, but they only had one spot to fill on the desk, ended up hiring a summer intern from another group. Overall a great experience, the professionals were very helpful and nice. Would definitely recommend Barclays for anyone wanting to go into the big bank environment. They are a wonderful company, I would have loved to work there!

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Barclays (New York, NY) in May 2018

      Interview

      I was hired very early on as a sophomore through their sophomore springboard program by attending their office for a 2-day visit and super day. It was a super good experience because Barclays people are so friendly and passionate about what they do. There was a lot of mentor ship and guidance through the program.
