The overall interview experience was good, with friendly and patient interviewers. All interviews were conducted virtually due to Covid. There was a test on credit fundamentals and basic maths, which was manageable. The interviews were short and provided opportunities to ask questions.

Technical Case Presentation
Had 3 rounds total, started with hirevue, then had an interview day, and then a super day. There were a decent amount of technical questions in the second and third rounds, but basic RE knowledge was sufficient. Everyone was nice and the case interview for the Superday was interesting. They got back to me a few days after the super day.
