Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Final Round interview- Why Deutsche? Why Commercial Real Estate? and a few competency style questions as well as a brain teaser to show them how you think. 2/3 interviews were more of a chat, and one of them was with two people good cop bad cop style. Overall not too intense and friendly interviewers. Be clear on why you want to work in the specific sector with DB and keep referring back to it, don't get side tracked
