Questions to Ask in an Investment Banking Interview
Strong closing questions for investment banking interviews, plus the weak ones candidates should stop asking.
Closing questions matter because they show how you think when the formal interview is almost over.
Better questions to ask
- What separates candidates who ramp quickly from those who do not?
- What kinds of live situations teach the most in this group?
- How has the market changed the work mix over the last year?
Questions to avoid
- anything answered by the website
- questions that focus only on lifestyle
- questions so broad that they sound automatic
The best test
Ask yourself: would a banker think this question came from someone who actually wants to understand the work?
If yes, keep it. If not, tighten it.
