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.

Interview
The process began by an email from HR. HR then set up a 30 min phone interview. In this interview, I was asked about my background, salary expectations, what I was expecting to get from the job. No technical questions were asked at this point. I was then told that I would have an additional interview with the manager of the office I would be working at. The second interview was set up a day later and that was an online interview which lasted around 45 min. The manager asked me about my background, some surface level financial statement questions, and told me about what to expect on a day-to-day basis working at the job. The manager told me after the interview that the next step would be for the manager to speak with HR. I have yet to hear from HR since I did the interview on a friday.

The interview process wasn't too difficult. It is similar to many other smaller banks. It started off with a phone interview and proceeded to a second video interview where behavioral questions were asked.
