Behavioral

It was pretty disorganized and they didn't seem to care much about us applicants. It mostly felt like they were just checking boxes. It wasn't super hard though, mostly behavioral questions.

Behavioral Technical

The interview process had 3 rounds. It was mostly behavioral, but some technical questions were asked. You need to know what GA does, why you want to join GA, and the specifics of the role. It's a great place, a massive fund, and a great learning experience.

It was a pretty straightforward process with 2 rounds and 3 interviews total. They asked a lot of technical and behavioral questions. All the questions were pretty similar, and there wasn't any case study or extra stuff required. Overall it went pretty smoothly. The company seems great and the work culture is good.
