They were not as patient as they should have been. I had a slip up regarding a calculation they gave and I mistakenly answered wrong and the one interviewer giggled and gave a judgemental stare before I could correct myself.

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Standard Bank Group (Johannesburg) in Jul 2014
Interview
I applied online and was invited to a first round interview. I was interviewed twice on the day for two divisions in the bank and was asked typical behavioural type questions and questions around where I see myself in the bank.
I got through to the second round which consisted of a psychometric test and an assessment centre.
Candidates were emailed a case 3 days before the assessment centre and had to prepare a presentation. I presented the case and was asked questions relating to it and more behavioural questions.
The assessment centre interviews were difficult because I had limited knowledge of accounting and finance. (I majored in economics and politics).
