Does anyone has Barclays HR recruitment email ? It has been almost a month since I completed business insight 2 and I am still yet to hear from them about the outcome. Is anyone of you in the same situation ?

I did the business insights 2 on the 7th of September so I've been waiting for ages! I applied for Wealth (grad) and they emailed me.
Still no one heard post-Business Insight 2 for Sales Grad? For better or for worse?

I think they have been focusing on other divisions (since some divisions are already at the AC stage/offers) and they only just started reviewing wealth now so hopefully it won't be long until they get to your application.

I applied for Market on 9th Sept and still haven't heard back! Should I be worried? Anyone else in this situation?

In theory, they should get back to everyone this month so hold on for a bit longer. I applied pretty much the day they opened and I only heard back yesterday.

True - Barc are generally quite slow, I remember I was invited for an AC last year end of Feb!
Has anyone heard back who applied for the Marketing Graduate Analyst job heard back from Barclays after Business Insight 2?

I did Business Insight 2 on the 20th of October and have still not heard back from them
Got rejection post insight 2 today for wealth grad. Good luck to all that still stand

could you give an idea of some of the questions?
were they like; where have you shown leadership/teamwork/communication, dealt with a problem kind of thing or more specific to the role you applied for?
and in terms of numerical questions the kind of thing i could practice with numerical reasoning tests?
Thanks

The numerical qs are the same style as insight1 but timed. There are no competency qs, just case study qs. You need to give recommendations based on case study and then have to defend your stance. There are video and written answers. Nothing too difficult tbh.

You are timed with typing. The question with typing is in the form of an email that you need to send to an MD where you have to explain your reasoning. As i said above, this was for wealth grad
