Why do you want to work at Macquarie?
This was asked in the phone interview stage. The interviewer is assessing whether your motivation is specific to Macquarie Group and the Software Engineer role, rather than based only on generic interest in technology or financial services. A strong response connects your experience, technical interests, and career goals to Macquarie's banking and financial services environment, while remaining realistic about what you hope to contribute and learn.
