The interview process was pretty simple. It started with an online 15 minute interview with an HR rep. Then a 30 minute behavioral and technical interview with two analysts. Finally a 2 hour superday with 3 30 minute behavioral and technical interviews with a mix of analysts to MDs.

Behavioral Technical

I had a first round with the VP, which lasted for an hour. After that, I went through a super day, which involved five separate Zoom calls with most of the team, lasting about four hours in total. They asked me about my background, my interests, and some random technical questions. The team seemed really interested in learning more about me and what I'm into.

I had one 15-minute informational phone call where they just asked me to talk about myself. Then, there was a first round interview. This first round was split between behavioral and technical questions; they asked some basic technical questions from study guides and a few that weren't.
