Goodman, when you said she worked for a full day did you mean she was there and was involved in different assessments as part of recruitment? If this is what you meant then I think this is somewhat norm for big players. I remember myself going through the same rigorous recruitment process for my internship in i-banking earlier this year. First, the application process took ages, then the preparation for interview and assessment centres, and finally was gruelled by senior bankers by asking me very technical or trick questions. Anyways, just to let you know, I did get the job at the end and did enjoy it too.<img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle> <img src=icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

Well yeah,, I joined a bank in Dubai a couple of months ago and the induction process involved a three level interview process.. the last day being a whole 8 hour ordeal. The whole process included interviews with the Chief internal auditor, an HR manager, a Psychologist (with the complete psychometric test, a group game plan and ofcourse a technical/scenario based test.
We later also went in for a feed back interview with the psychologist... who gave us a complete personality sketch with strengths and weaknesses.
They literally tear you apart...but I guess all is well that ends well.
