Interview
I was first approached by a HR representative. He told me about the position and asked me if I was interested in applying. Then I had a 1-1 interview with the recruiting manager. He asked me to go over my resume with him, asked me a mix of behavioral and technical questions. He then set up interviews with 4 team members. Some interviews went well, others not so much. I was pretty much ghosted after that point.
Interview Questions
In general questions were not difficult but I had the impression they were looking for very particular answers. If I didn't use the right concept or wording they seemed to be disappointed. For example, I was asked how to determine whether to invest or not on a particular class of corporate bonds.
