Behavioral Technical Case

It started with a basic recruiter call. Then, I had a take-home assignment where I had to build an accretive/dilutive merger model. After that, there were two 1-on-1 interviews. One was pretty standard, just a get-to-know-you chat about my background. The other was more technical, with about 5-6 questions, and we also reviewed my homework.

Behavioral

after sending a cold email, I was contacted by an admin. Then, there were two video interviews back to back. I followed up a week after the interviews and got an offer the next day. It wasn't very technical; they seemed more interested in my personality.

Behavioral Technical

The process involved a phone screen with admin/HR, a phone interview and 3 or 4 following Skype/in-person interviews. Most staff were cordial and asked the usual questions about experience. Martin, who runs the shop and put his name on the wall, was abrasive and seemed more interested with pressuring responses so he could get on with his day. Not a good sign and I could tell he would be a difficult leader to work under.

Applied online, got a call back for a phone interview. The phone interview was brief, they told me about the job and asked about my experience. Then I had an in-person interview with two people who would be my direct supervisors, and also an interview with the office manager.
