I saw a few posts online saying interviewers at GS may throw in unexpected questions like riddles or market sizing during interviews. Is that still true or more of a myth from a few years ago? If so, how should I prepare?
Hey,
yes, Goldman Sachs sometimes still includes brainteasers or unexpected questions, especially in early rounds. It’s not the main focus, but they do want to see how you think under pressure.
Personally, I actually enjoy them. 😂 But I also like crosswords and any riddles. It’s a fun way to challenge yourself and build mental agility. If you want to try a few, there’s a great collection here: https://www.preplounge.com/en/brain-teaser
