The number you see in the middle of the doughnut pie chart is the simple average of these scores. If you hover over the various sections of the donut, you will see the % breakdown of each score given.

The percentile score in the title is calculated across the entire Company Database and uses an adjusted score based on Bayesian Estimates (to account for companies that have few interview insights). Simply put, as a company gets more reviews, the confidence of a "true score" increases so it is pulled closer to its simple average and away from the average of the entire dataset.

The first one was standard brainteasers, background, and a bit about the pitch. The second and third were almost entirely about the pitch. Did not move forward after the third round.

Interview
Job was posted on Linkedin. Application required me to submit a short stock pitch and a week later I was invited to a phone interview with one of their analysts. Interview consisted of a few behaviorals, some technicals/brainteasers and a brief discussion about my stock pitch. Interviewer was unengaged and somewhat condescending. Felt like I was dinged before I said a word.

Interview
There was a stock pitch assignment to send in along with the application. Almost immediately after, got an email for an interview. The interview lasted 20 minutes and went over the stock pitch, then there were brainteasers and finance questions. The interviewer was rushing through questions, and barely gave time to think through his difficult questions. For the amount of work you have to do to get an interview, the interview felt like a formality with the intention of rejecting.
