Behavioral Technical
This was one of the easier interview processes I went through, and I felt like I learned a lot about the company and the team. It felt more like an informative session than a strict interview. I had 4 interviews in total, starting from the initial call all the way to the offer call. It was a very efficient process with no unnecessary delays.

Behavioral Technical Case
It was a 4-round interview process. First, an HR call which was pretty brief. Then, 2-3 associate interviews focusing on behavioral questions with a bit of quant. After that, there was a case interview that was quant and accounting focused. The final round was with the manager and was mostly behavioral. Overall, it was a good interview experience.

Behavioral Technical
I began the interview process and it was a very positive experience. After the initial interview with the recruiter, she explained the interview process would continue with 4 interviews. I had two wonderful, lovely interviews but one rubbed the wrong way in every sense and I felt the interview to be very negative and unprofessional. After my fourth interview, I hadn't heard back in 10 days so I emailed the recruitment for a follow up; no response. After the 3 week mark had passed, I sent a second follow up, searching for any sort of feedback or update. At this point, I finally received a response letting me know they are not moving forward with me.
