Deutsche Bank Analyst interview questions

3 rounds of interviews focusing on IBD technicals (M&A), accounting questions and questions on general understanding of M&A market in Asia, final round was asked to talk about some recent transactions

Deutsche didn't have an aptitude test in line, they only had a CV screening round followed by a GD round. It was important that you actively listen what others are speaking and then gave your point at an opportune moment, cutting someone off or speaking a lot was mostly negatively judged, short and crisp points were favoured. GD was followed by a technical interview round 1, by a single panelist, my panelist worked in Regulations so mostly my questions were regarding regulations, IFRS or GAAP, it is okay if you don't know the exact answer, but knew the crux. From IFRS, it shifted to BASEL norms and a couple of ratios, and this was an easy round. Another technical interview, dual panel, followed this. This was a stress interview, they grilled as much as they could, question after question, be it the most random ones, a case study or regarding my CV. What mattered was you holding your grit and still being curious to learn, enthusiasm. After all of that it was a general HR interview.
