I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Goldman Sachs in Jan 2019
Interview
Standard DS also even if u trying to solve the right way they stop u and say u are doing well and then they don't allow u to complete and then reject you. Fly u into their office and if u staying overnight be ready to shell out around 600$ as they will say they will reimburse but the hr did not even reply to my mail of reimbursement. Biggest SCAM in the name of the interview and the hotel u are put up in which you have to pay for is a hotel owned by Goldman Sachs extremely cheap.
A recruiter reached out to me. Technical screening was easy, then the super day loop included LC medium/hard questions. The last interview was my background check, project deep-dive, and theoretical conversation about applied solutions and their limitations/optimization.
