    Phone interview with UniCredit
    I got a phone interview with UniCredit coming up, for summer internship in IB - London.
    Has anyone interviewed with them before? What the questions like? (competency, lots of technical, etc). Thanks for helping!

    First question was what do you know about the role and what do you think they expect you to do there, pretty straight forward.

    In a situation where tough targets were to be achieved, what did you do? how? how did you do better than others?

    A situation in which u made some mistake, what was the situation? what was the outcome? how did you get it resolved? what did u learn from it?

    From any recent job - what are the risks involved in it? how do u pay attention to that and follow the procedures?

    Thanks a lot Dekota-XS. Do they ask any "investment banking" type questions (current event in the market, factors driving M&A, etc) or is it just mostly about competency?

    Mine wasn't technical at all, just motivational questions (why do you want to do the summer internship etc etc). Nothing hard at least..

    they just phoned me up out of the blue, you seem to have it scheduled

    They phoned me today as well and asked if I could do an interview immediately. I told them I was busy and asked to reschedule it.
