Case Technical Behavioral Other
I was reached out to by Melissa Nolan, a recruiter, who gave me a really good feel for the company. She was quick to reply, made sure I got answers to my questions, and was upfront about the interview steps and when things would happen. After her call, I had a case interview. Passing that led to two more cases, a technical case, a behavioral interview, and a conversational interview. Everyone I spoke with knew their stuff and were happy to answer any questions. The company really prioritizes hiring smart and authentic people, with a big emphasis on cultural fit.

Behavioral
The recruiter was late for our call and messed up the position details. They were clearly not paying attention during the entire interview, as I could hear them walking around, washing their hands, pulling out tissues, and opening the door. When I asked questions, they gave irrelevant answers. In the end, they mentioned that the company already had candidates in the final stage, so I likely wouldn't move forward. It was disappointing because I spent hours preparing to learn about the company's culture. Please be respectful. I feel lucky to have gotten a rejection email the next day; I can't imagine how bad it would have been if I had advanced.

Behavioral Case
It started with a recruiter screen, then a first round behavioral interview. After that, there were five more interviews which were a mix of behavioral and case interviews. The cases were mostly business cases, like the ones for Capital One BA interviews, and sometimes brainteaser-style cases. I felt the process was a bit long, but not excessively so.
