I’ve got a final round next week at a large bank in the PF space, with multiple interviews with varying levels of seniority. So far it’s only been behaviorals.
Has anyone been through this process recently at a large PF bank that might be able to shed light on the types of questions that might be asked, particularly technicals? Trying to optimize the time I’ve got left to prepare accordingly.
There are a lot of IB prep materials, but I don’t see much for PF.
