Technical
It was hard and they were very technical based. They seemed very cold and I just think they focused too little on actually trying to evaluate the type of person and worker I am.

I applied online through my college's recruiting site. Since I attend a 'target' university, I had two phone interviews, each lasting 30 minutes and scheduled back-to-back. I was upfront about my knowledge gaps, especially in finance given my liberal arts background. The interviews were conducted by current analysts who would be my colleagues. They were friendly, and I focused on showing I have a good personality and would be someone they'd want to work with for long hours.
