Case Behavioral
I applied for this role through the university career website. I got a call back for a first round interview, which was mostly a case study with a couple of behavioral questions at the end. The next round was a full day at the DC office, involving various case and behavioral interviews. Everyone was really nice, but it was an exhausting day.
