Any advice for the Nomura Numerical and Logical? Is it particularly hard or pretty standard?

It's pretty standard, slightly harder than other banks, but not by much. Their logical is the one which you need to be wary of and requires the most practice.

Numerical is ok, you have plenty of time, but in logical you will have a time pressure since there is only 12min for 24q, my advice is try not lose much time in earlier questions and keep some time for last questions, last few questions are relatively harder

Anyone know how to email Barclays graduate careers? There is no email adress anywhere
Do Kenexa not have any practice tests anymore on their website?

Anyone know whether or not Citi will tell you if you passed their numerical?
And what kind of timeframe have people seen for a response to their application post tests?

Thanks in advance to all who reply.

I think they hold your application regardless. Because last year I was called to an AC in April after a Summer Analyst dropped out (applied in October). Was insanely competitive though that late, nearly all MSc students.

Also does anyone know how long you have to complete barcalys business insight 2 test? It did not specify anything in the email, and I do not have the time to sit it till Wednesday at the earliest. I've been hearing that you only have 48 hours, but nothing concrete.

Also for those who may want to know, I've applied for the off cycle programme. I sat the first test today and received the invitation to part two within 3 minutes of completion of test 1.

Thanks for the quick response mate. I've got one more question, did your email say invite to business insight 2 or just online interview?

I've just had a look at my email again and it says nothing about business insight 2, just that it's a hireview interview?

Is that still business insight 2 or have I just skipped a stage haha?
