Finding Talented Individuals from all Backgrounds
Our recruitment process involves online testing, video interviews and an assessment centre. We are focused solely on the skills needed for the job and look for individuals from all genders, races and academic backgrounds. Using our innovative process and blind application technology, we strive to improve diversity and assess individuals based only on the requirements of the role, by stripping away all of the unnecessary detail from an application.
Start your application by answering a few questions and uploading a CV on our application platform, Applied, and we’ll be in touch.
The Process
Application
To get started, you need to submit your application via our blind application technology partner, Applied. This uses a few key questions which are designed to replace the CV and assess whether you have the core skills needed for the role. Applied helps us encourage diversity and strips away all of the unnecessary detail from an application to enable a demonstrably fair first review. We’ll then be in touch to let you know whether you have been invited to progress to the next stage.
1
Introductory Interview
Successful candidates will be invited to a short video interview with our recruitment partner, Freshminds. This is to get a better understanding of your skills and motivations, asking a small number of competency questions.
2
Online Test
After the initial interview, we’ll ask you to complete an online test to review your core numerical skills which are needed for the role. You’ll be able to complete a practice session to prepare yourself and get to grips with the types of questions in advance.
3
Extended Interview
This is a more in-depth video interview to build up a clear picture of how you might work as part of the team at Gleacher Shacklock. We will cover a few different topics including (but not limited to): your understanding of the role of an Intern, within the wider context of investment banking, but also at a technical level; your understanding of Gleacher Shacklock’s business offering; and your motivations for your application.
4
Assessment Centre
The final stage is an Assessment Centre led by the Gleacher Shacklock team, which is divided into two parts: one-on-one interviews and a small group exercise designed to assess your technical understanding and teamworking skills. The Assessment Centre will be held at Gleacher Shacklock’s London office.
5
Offer
If you have got to this stage then congratulations! You will be given a verbal offer and begin the on-boarding process. For those who don’t receive an offer, everyone who reaches the in-depth interview stage and beyond will have the option to receive feedback on the process from our recruitment partner, Freshminds. They will have a good understanding of your skills and how you performed along the process and will be able to give useful feedback for areas to work on as you pursue other opportunities in future.
