You get the feedback report after hirevue. I got final round interview (post AC) last year for the FIC program, but changed my strategy this year so just finished my hirevue for O&A. How has have peoples gone if you have done them?

Thanks, I thought SHL are responsible for the feedback report. I had the impression that SHL were quite unreliable with it because I didn't get a report after completing the practice assessments either. I have also applied to O&A and I will be doing the interview tomorrow! How did your interview go? Could I also ask why you changed your mind from FIC to O&A? - I was also struggling to decide between the two. Wish you all the best this year!

I'm interested in equity sales specifically within sales and trading, and that is something that is only covered by GS' program. DB only has rates, structuring and currencies that come under their sales and trading umbrella. My end desired goal is working on the HF side managing my own L/S equities only fund, hence why I'm specifically interested in equities as opposed to macro-trading/structuring.

Tbf last year, Deutsche sent out the wrong assessments for people to do, which meant everyone that applied early had to do 2 different online assessments which was pretty annoying

That's fair enough. I personally really enjoy the client facing side of M&A and M&A in general which only DB seems to offer.

Well I just completed my video interview and it wasn’t the best to be honest, I just couldn’t shake the nerves unfortunately, leading to some timing issues. However the ability assessment I got AAB, so that’s something I guess. How about your experience?
