I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at BNY in Oct 2021
Interview
Video Interview, followed by a super day. Mostly behavioral questions, with a few light technical questions mixed in. Seemed like the goal was to get to know you, and whether your personality was a match for the team you were interviewing with.

Question 1
What is one piece of financial news you think will be important in the coming weeks?
They asked me questions on oops, java fundamentals and one DSA question of reversing an array. Questions were asked related to my projects, since I had used API calling, questions revolved around using API. Then some general questions like why idfc, are you open to relocation were also asked.

Question 1
They asked what is the difference between abstract class and interface.
It was simple, just a screening followed by 2 zoom interviews. I had to prepare with some STAR questions and an elevator pitch. The interviewers were pretty nice overall, and my 2nd round interview felt more of a conversation.
