I was originally contacted by HR via email. They requested a phone interview, which consisted of a panel of 3 people(HR, Finance Department, Recent Intern) and me.

Interview Questions
What are the functions you use most in Excel, and what do you use them for?
-I answered with vlook ups, summing, averaging and the chart functions. I use vlookups when I am trying to pinpoint a value that needs to be extracted. For summing and averaging, it is great to use them for aggregating data at very large levels. Charts and graphs are useful for creating visuals that tell stories from the data.
What coding experience do you have?
-I answered by explaining my recent project I completed in Python. The project was an investment analysis on my personal portfiolio to figure out what the best weights of my stocks were.

I applied online and I heard back within a month. I was contacted by HR for an pre-screening interview. I then interviewed with multiple members of the group including a trader, analyst, and risk executive (was like a 5 on 1). I was asked about energy commodity markets. Questions on company profile and the markets it operates in. I was then asked behavioral questions that are standard in any interview. Followed by technical questions on what indicators and factors affected the energy markets. Total process was about 3 months.
