Process began with a fit interview with the head of HR then had a 2-hour modeling test followed my a debrief then a third round 1-on-1. After that, had a superday with six 30 to 45 minute interviews. Advice is to be sharp on modeling and solid understanding of the deals you've been on from an investors perspective.
