Behavioral Technical Presentation
It was a mix of behavioral and technical interviews. They started with some get-to-know-you questions about my background, past experiences, and why I'd be a good fit for the role. Then, I had to do a stock pitch, covering both long and short positions. They also asked me some questions about current events based on recent news.

It was a 30-minute phone interview. They mostly asked about my background and made sure that the things I listed on my resume were accurate. Then, I was asked a couple of quick technical questions. The interviewer was pretty chill.
