Case Behavioral Other
Applied and got an interview the next day, then was rejected the day after. It seemed like the job was already promised to someone, or HR is extremely efficient. I had a phone interview for a role in Kenya while based in the NYC branch. The interview felt unprofessional, almost like they were just killing time. They asked irrelevant questions and expected me to complete a case study on the phone with only two minutes to prepare.

Technical Other Presentation
You start with a Plum test, which includes some cognitive and personality mapping questions. After that, there's a recruiter call. If you pass that, you'll have an interview with the hiring manager, which includes an exercise. You'll then have a second interview to go over the exercise. This is usually followed by a final panel round, and then an offer.

9 rounds over two months, terrible scheduling and gaps between interviews, lots of leading on, rejection after three weeks wait at final stage—awful recruitment experience, ironically, for the HR team position
