The interview process consisted of two rounds. The first round was with an Analyst, and the second round was with the manager. I didn't receive any feedback after the first round. The first round covered basic questions, while the second round delved into detailed past transactions experience. It seems they didn't hire many candidates, and since I didn't get any feedback after a month, I assume I didn't get the offer. The outcome is uncertain.
