Behavioral Technical
I had one interview at Wedbush Securities in their New York office for a Summer Analyst position. It was with two analysts. Most of it was behavioral, but about 40% was technical accounting stuff. The interviewers were nice, though one seemed to be looking for tricky answers.

Had a simple initial phone screen. Now I have two assessments. There will be 4 more phone interviews, and then they'll fly me out for an in-person interview if they think I'm a chill guy. We'll see!
