Behavioral Technical
It started with two resume screens, one by HR and another by the coverage/product group. I passed both and then had an intro call with HR. After that, I had a first round interview with the VP of the M&A group, which was mostly behavioral with a few general valuation questions. The Superday consisted of 3 interviews, each lasting 30 minutes. It was pretty chill and included a mix of behavioral and technical questions focusing on accounting and valuation. I didn't get an offer, but it was a positive interview experience.
