I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Jefferies in Oct 2018
Interview
I applied through my school platform. I then got an email a couple weeks later to schedule a phone interview. I got a call from 2 guys who were recent college graduates from my college, but we’re acting very professional.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Basic questions about coursework and college, who I am as a person. Also asked some basic financial accounting questions.
I applied online. I interviewed at Jefferies (New York, NY) in Mar 2026
Interview
The interview was one-on-one and around 30 minutes. The overall experience is good but the interviewer pushed to details about one of my research program. Tell me about yourself, Why Jefferies.
A lengthy and involved process which evaluated many aspects of aptitude. All interviews were online and the final assessment centre was comprised of 3 back to back interviews. After that there was a final interview with the head of ER, which was more of a culture check.
