Overall, it was a great interview experience, a 10/10. It felt more like a conversation than just being bombarded with questions. The interviewer was very friendly and nice, spoke highly of the firm, and gave me plenty of opportunities to ask my own questions.

Behavioral Technical

I had a first phone screen with a company rep, and then a second phone interview with someone from the team. We talked about my background, the job, and the company culture. I was pretty keen to move forward, but then I didn't hear back about their decision.

Behavioral Case Presentation

Pretty average process overall. Intro call with VP, then a case study where you have to come up with 3 investment/company ideas based off a picture, and then an on-site super-day which is a full day of interviews. It's a normal growth equity interview process.

It was a pretty standard interview process. I had two 30-minute phone interviews, and then an in-person super day. I also had to do two case studies: one was a take-home assignment before the super day, and the other was done during the super day itself.
