Please describe the interview / hiring process.
Sent in my resume and cover letter from my College recruiting site. Eventually was contacted and had a brief phone interview. Then I was asked to come in for an interview. Met with two senior research associates, with 30 mins each. Went through my resume, my non-traditional background (I was pressed on this), and what the job would entail.

Was invited to a second round of interviews a few weeks later with portfolio manager and senior research heads. Met with three people that day, much more relaxed. Spoke in depth about future career opportunities.

Then had to send in my transcripts, complete a skills/compatibility test and other administrative stuff.

Was impressed by the office and culture. Seemed somewhat quiet but upbeat. Office is absolutely gorgeous with beautiful views of the city.
