I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Barclays
Interview
I applied for summer technical analyst in Barclay. This interview was on campus. And there were two parts. First part was technical part and the second part was behavioral part.
I did quite well in the behavioral questions. But for the technical part, thought the interviewer asked for basic Java questions, I did not do well. Tips: just go over all the basic concepts in Java. The interviewer were so nice.
