First went through the sophomore summit. Two 30-minute back-to-back interviews for Superday, one is a credit trader, and the other is an alum of our school. The first one is very technical, the second one is more about BQ.
I applied online. I interviewed at BNP Paribas (New York, NY)
Interview
The interview was in general standard, with great emphasis on market understanding and motivation questions. There are two brain teasers and several mental math questions as well. In the last five minutes there is a Q&A part.

Two rounds of virtual interviews before an in-person superday. Interviews consisted of behaviorals, brain-teasers, and markets knowledge, with a heavy focus on logic puzzles and financial news. Most interviewers were from their fixed income team.
