More suggestions...
Fingers crossed that one of those helps you.
I created an account to answer this because I interviewed with this team two years ago, for this job actually, its like a fam office for the rich clients of the bank. On the private side like wealth management stufff.
I came from Dublin for the interview and was treated like garbage. Interviewer was Piere ahlsell. he gave no respect the entire time. Random and aggressive. seemed high or drunk or smth. I’m a woman and he made some v weird comments, worst interview experience ever.
Former employees told me to avoid this team. Pay is below market and toxic kind of culture because of this dude. Exits seem pretty good like HF though. Funnily I got the offer and turned it down. hope you did the same.
