Interview
Hirevue Interview - first round screening process for equity research analyst before actual in person interviews. Mainly behavioral questions about teamwork. Fairly straightforward. Continues with a series of questions asking about how you would act in a situation.
Two back-to-back interviews with an analyst each. All behavioural quesitons. Each question was pretty long and they expected you to talk a lot during the process. There were also follow up questions. No technical questions surprisingly.
