Interview Details

What did the interview consist of?

1 on 1 Interview

Please describe the interview / hiring process.

All of the interviews are online over zoom. Each is thirty minutes. Both the technicals and behaviorals were fairly similar. Neither spent more time on technicals or behaviorals. The team focuses more on intuition and behaviorals. Don't expect brain teasers or any questions involving difficult math. The final round is branded as a "case study," which is not true. It's similar to the first two rounds, but with more senior staff (VP/MD)

1st Round - Behaviorals: One Associate/Sr. Analyst interviewer
2nd Round - Technicals: One Associate/Sr. Analyst interviewer
3rd Round/Superday - Case Study: Two Senior interviewers
