Behavioral Case Presentation

First, I had an initial interview with two managers. It was a standard fit interview where they asked questions like why I wanted to work with Rio Tinto and reviewed my CV. Then, I had an inbox case study. I was given 3 hours to review an investment opportunity. The whole process involved a quick intro, then 3 hours of solo work, and finally a review with some senior analysts.

Behavioral Case Presentation

Got referred by a contact. Started with an HR screening, followed by a one-on-one interview. This included a general interview for about an hour in the morning, and then a 3-4 hour case study. The case study was highly technical and required a presentation at the end.
