Interview Details

What did the interview consist of?
Phone Interview
1 on 1 Interview
Background Check
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
Initial contact will be made through their online portal. This applies even if you are using an internal referral. If you have an inside contact, HR will definitely review within 5 days; otherwise, could be between 2 weeks and never.

After being selected, there will likely be a phone interview by HR for general screening purposes. Just don't act like Patrick Bateman and you'll be fine.

Super day is scheduled afterward. Give or take, 1-3 months. Depends on when you dropped your application.

Super day is a royal $hitshow where you'll meet with about 3 people. All at the senior manager level or higher (partner level). It'll be a fairly random process because you won't know who you're meeting. 95% of the time it'll be purely personality based questions unless you have relevant experience in which case they'll ask about that in broad strokes.

Second round is scheduled within 2 weeks unless you knock it out of the park (or have another competing offer on the table). In that case, I have personally witnessed people getting offers within those 2 weeks.

Second round is almost for formality purposes. Rough guesstimate, I saw 90% of the people from second round once I started working.

Offers post second round are usually given within a week.
