It was a really simple process, they just wanted to learn more about you and see if you'd be a good cultural fit. You really need to be solid with Excel and genuinely interested in it.

It was a digital interview. There was a first round and then a final round. The people were very nice. They focused on stock pitches and market analysis. They tested my TMAY and basic industry knowledge. They asked me why I was interested in this group. Overall it was a good experience and a great company. I would recommend it to anyone.

It was a really nice interview process. Everyone was approachable and friendly. They didn't ask any tricky questions. They were respectful of my time and kept me informed. I spoke with 6 people in total. The first part had 4 interviews, each lasting 30 minutes, followed by a final round with 2 interviews, also 30 minutes each. This setup gave me a good idea of the team I would be joining.
