Interview
Was contacted by the Senior Associate. An hour long "interview" which felt more like a conversation. Not difficult, you just have to show passion and drive.
Interview Questions
*Keep in mind this was an intern position*
There were 2 round: One with the Senior Associate and one with the CEO.

First Round:
Started off by telling me about the firm and what they did.
I also asked him about himself, which he shared.
Not very difficult. Very minimal and basic technicals.

Second Round:
Asked me about my story. Nothing difficulty (Questions featured below). Make sure to ask good questions at the end.
They had very little time so it was a quick process.

Got the offer 2 hours later.
