Let's Prepare To Apply

in a direction that suits your goals, in a business of exceptional size and scope.

So you're ready to apply. But how can you maximise your chances of success?

Regardless of your individual profile, it’s important to be well prepared for your interview and maximise your chances of success.

So how does our recruitment process work?

The number of steps may vary, depending on the job concerned, but we always conduct at least two interviews. Some roles may involve more interviews and/or tests. But don't panic, it's just to make sure we understand each other perfectly. The whole process should be wrapped up in about a month, depending on the role you are applying for.

What makes a good CV?

A good CV is one that immediately makes clear your level of experience and skills as they relate to the job you’re applying for.
Although it’s important to highlight your hard skills, don’t forget to tell us about your soft skills as well, because for us those are equally important. For example: are you adaptable or a team player?

Lastly, it’s always best to include visibly the job title on your CV to indicate the job you’re applying for.

ANOTHER GOOD TIP

Update your professionnal online presence with assignments or projects you’ve completed and skills you’ve gained. Don't hesitate to ask former colleagues for recommendations, because these endorsements can be very persuasive with recruitment teams.

Your interview has been scheduled, But what's the best way to prepare?

If you feel well prepared for your interview, you will arrive feeling more confident and be able to give honest and factual answers to the questions you are asked, which are designed to help us understand who you are and what are your motivations for applying. Once you apply for any role/opportunity at BNP Paribas, your profile will go through stringent internal screening checks and if shortlisted, a recruitment associate will connect with you to conduct a prescreening call-in to evaluate whether you are the right fit for the role.
