Behavioral Case
1st interview was a discussion about understanding the role, the tasks, and the company's organization. Then a 2nd interview with a consultant where we discussed a case study. The case study is quite complex but really reflects the job's tasks.

Behavioral Case Presentation
First, there was a recruiter call about the company and the role, with classic questions about my background. Then, an operational interview with a case study to do and present. The case was sent an hour before, and the interview was a presentation of my findings followed by Q&A. The case was a standard panel data analysis.

Behavioral Case Presentation
The whole process took about 3 weeks. First, I had a quick chat with HR. Then, I had a second interview with two managers, which was quite laid-back. They mainly asked behavioral questions, wanting to learn about my background and how my past experiences aligned with the role. After that, I had to complete a data analysis case study and present it in a third interview. The process was very straightforward, and everyone I met was really nice.
