There were two interviews total, starting with an analyst and then moving on to an MD. It was pretty standard, they wanted to see if I was interested in investing and asked me to pitch some long and short ideas. That was pretty much it.

Technical Presentation

The process was pretty standard. Two people interviewed me for on-campus recruiting at the same time, and it was a 30-minute interview. I applied through on-campus recruiting during winter break and got notified of an interview a couple of weeks before it actually happened. It took a while for them to formally tell me I got rejected, but by then I already knew.
