Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: 28 questions, 18 quantative + 10 financial awareness, negative marking. I took one pass through the Quant section, leaving about 5 questions, went on to the financial section, realized I wasn't going to score that well there so went back to Quant eventually attempting all 18, having to guess 1 answer since I ran out of time. I attempted probably 2-3 in financial. The test matters a lot to get shortlisted - some CSE students didn’t get shortlisted apparently because of a low test score. I would suggest that focus should be primarily on the quant section rather than the finance section - a friend in CSE who said he did well in the finance section didn’t get shortlisted.
Quant
1. Find next in sequence : 10,1,.......7,7...11,5 - don't remember the rest of the sequence but it looked random
initially it but if you take the difference between alternate terms an obvious pattern emerges .

7. The sum of the multiples of 7 between 200 and 400 is what (trick was instead of calculating, to observe that the answer is odd and of the 5 options, only one was odd)?
8. Sum of consecutive page numbers in a book starting from 1 to n is 1000 - one page was repeated. which page was it? (idea was to subtract each choice from 1000 and see if it was n _ (n + 1)/2)

Duration: 40 min minutes
Round: HR Interview
Experience: I was the last person DB interviewed that day. Towards the end, the interviewer said “I am sure you are going to join Tower Research and not DB”. They also seemed to have decided before I came in to the interview that I would get an offer with some other company and would not choose DB - kept attacking the answers I gave to ‘Why not Microsoft/Tower’. In hindsight maybe I shouldn't have listed all the 4 tech companies I had interned with.

The space diagonal can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem.
The formula for the space diagonal is √(a² + b² + c²), where a, b, and c are the lengths of the sides of the cube.
In this case, a = b = c = 10, so the space diagonal is √(10² + 10² + 10²) = √300 ≈ 17.32 units.

Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: I read a book on derivatives (John C Hull)….I told the interviewer that I liked derivatives and wanted a structuring profile at DB.They were not expecting such an answer and the rest of the interview was on derivatives. I gave correct answers to most of them and had right approach for the others.
General Tips: Read up options and futures, John Hull and if you somehow put that point across in the interview, you are almost in. However, this approach is risky as reading the book takes lot of time and and also once you mention this, they grill you with questions on advanced concepts.

I appeared for an interview before Jun 2016.
Interview Preparation Tips
Experience: Since it is a Finance profile, it would help if you have any finance /economics/ MBA projects to write about. DB looks for a good CPI and decent projects or extra curriculars and interest in the finance sector. It also wouldn?t hurt to mention your technical skills here.
Round: Test
Experience: And since most of the finance work in India is back office (with all due respect to all those who have been placed in this sector) you have to be comfortable with numbers and calculations. The test is a typical CAT type paper mostly concentrating on quantitative analysis and data interpretation. There is also a bonus finance section for those who have knowledge on the subject. Again practice cat type papers well and sit with a knowledgeable friend of yours to discuss topics in finance.
Tips: Realize when you are in a recession period. No job comes easy. Most of us who are not insanely intelligent like that one dude in your wing need to practice hard for the test to get through. In a recession/slack scenario core companies save the day. Don?t neglect your core courses.
