I applied in-person. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at Cambon Partners (Paris)
Interview
First round is an interview with a partner or with a director. No technical then, just fit which is important to them as the company is fairly small.
Second round is a written test of 90 min to 120 min. Corporate finance, accounting, finance question, as well as some translations to check your proficiency in English (not a real problem if you re a native English speaker, they won't be too regarding on your French proficiency since everyone speaks a decent English), and some Excel questions.
