I received a first round interview through my school's on campus recruiting system. The interview was a fit based interview with a recent analyst. I was asked about my interest in venture capital and any team specific experiences I have been involved with. There was a strong focus on my specific interest level with Bessemer and the questions were very much pointed towards that.
