Technical Other
The process was pretty straightforward. I contacted HR directly since I don't think they use a headhunter. They didn't give me any feedback after the timed model build, they just moved on from me. As far as I can tell, they haven't hired anyone for the team yet.

Had a standard LBO model assessment followed by a series of Zoom interviews. These included a mix of technical and behavioral questions. They asked a decent amount about past deals I worked on in investment banking. Everyone was very nice.

Behavioral Technical
The interview process was thorough, and I was impressed by the smart people there. The depth of their team and dedication to their industry vertical stood out. I would interview with them again and have no regrets. I've continued to apply, hoping to get a role there, though I ended up taking a position elsewhere.
