Behavioral Technical

The first interview was a 1-hour meeting with the hiring manager to discuss my resume and my exposure to capital markets. It was a pretty straightforward interview with a friendly conversation. The interviewer explained the projects the candidate would work on and the technical skills needed. The second interview was a quick 15-minute chat with another hiring manager about my background.
