Behavioral Technical

I had a few calls with some team managers. The interview with my direct manager was in person. The second interview was on Zoom. HR from the company managed the process. It was pretty fast overall, but they never sent an email to let me know I didn't get the job.

Case Behavioral

The process was mostly case interviews with a few background questions. They were clear about the process, but it took a while for them to respond. I never got a rejection notice until I reached out to ask what happened.

Behavioral Case

So for first year diligence and growth strategy interviews, which is right out of undergrad, the interviews are gonna be behavioral and also a market sizing case study. It's gonna be more similar to consulting interview process vs other industries.
