The interview process was pretty structured and professional, really showing the bank's focus on compliance, client service, and all those regulatory things. First, there was an HR screening where we talked about my background, why I wanted the job, and what I was looking for. Then, I had technical interviews with the hiring manager. We dove into AML/KYC knowledge, how I handle clients, and some practical scenarios that fit the role.

The interview process had poor communication and interaction, and it took a very long time to schedule in-person discussions, which stretched out the process. They should use better interview techniques, processes, and profile evaluation to get better offers and hires, as the same points carried forward into future discussions. They could also move forward without certain details instead of making the process complicated.
