Russia

Russia’s dynamic and quickly growing economy offers intellectually stimulating career opportunities to individuals with energy and vision. While English is the official language of business, knowledge of Russian is essential. To help improve everyone’s skills, Goldman Sachs provides both Russian and English language classes.

While the interview process is lengthy, it has many advantages. It helps us to determine if you are a good fit with Goldman Sachs. It is also your opportunity to see if Goldman Sachs is right for you, and we encourage you to ask questions of us. The benefit is that once you start, you know you’re working in the right place.

For Interns, New Analysts and New Associates:
Goldman Sachs is increasing its graduate recruitment by holding more presentation days. We offer summer internships in investment banking and securities. Other divisions – including global investment research, operations, finance, compliance, technology, legal and management controls, merchant banking, investment management, human capital management and services – offer three- to six-month seasonal internships. Internships may lead to full-time jobs after graduation.

We encourage candidates to attend as many presentation days as possible, and once you apply, be persistent in following up. During the interview process, be yourself. Show us that you’re eager – eager to share your experience, eager to learn new things, eager to embrace new challenges.

The process:
• Apply online
• 1st round interviews
   - three interviews with divisional team members
   - testing for reasoning and math (certain divisions only)
• 2nd round interviews with vice presidents and heads of business

For Experienced Professionals:
Goldman Sachs finds qualified candidates through recruiters, employee referrals and our online job database.

The process:
• 1st round interviews with multiple team members
• 2nd round interviews with, in most cases, several London colleagues. This can happen in person or via videoconference.

The timeframe from initial contact to offer can vary, from three to four weeks to a few months.
