Technical Technical Behavioral

Applied via a job board. I had no prior finance experience. The interview process consisted of a technical round, followed by another technical round, and then a video call with the head of the team. The whole hiring process was completed within two weeks. It was a good experience overall. The questions asked were related to the job and since I was a fresher, they were also related to my academics. Puzzles were asked at all three levels. My analytical ability was assessed throughout the interview by asking me to compare real-life mergers and products.
