Very bad interview process
I applied for a position in Birmingham. Just received an email telling that you are selected for interview and there was no recruiter connect.
Interview was very generic with out any structure as if they have already found out someone.
Interview went well but suddenly they just ghosted without any response for calls or mails. Very bad interview process and in a time where applicants guage company culture through interview process, GS is at the bottom.
I am really happy that they ghosted and showed true colours before I got trapped.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Generic ones such as past experience, controls and so. Nothing technical.
Didn’t hear back for 3 months and then a recruiter started emailing and calling aggressively. Don’t assume hope is lost but also def not a place with fast moving processes (above junior levels)

Question 1
See description above since did not wind up taking
Usually introduction, then ask candidates to walk us through relevant experiences, then drill into more on the ground experience to establish understanding if the candidate really has been telling the truth or over stating his/her role
I applied online. I interviewed at Goldman Sachs (Dallas, TX) in Jan 2026
Interview
Very straightforward and quick process. Extremely communicative and I appreciated this interview process more than other interviews due to how fast whole process went. HR will get in touch very quickly if the interviewers are interested.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Asked about items on resume and give examples to speak on the work. Just wanted to get to know your work history and what you have accomplished or any difficulties.
