Behavioral Technical Coding

The interview process started with a self-introduction round. Then, there was an email writing task, where I had to write examples like asking for permission to join an Excel class from my team leader or manager. The third round involved questions related to being a financial analyst, covering topics like capital markets, money markets, derivatives, equities, bonds, mutual funds, corporate actions, and investment banking. The fourth round was similar to the third, but they also asked questions related to my previous experience or any courses I had completed. I felt well-prepared, and I hope this helps you.
