Interview
Submitted resume, received a response in a day or so to answer some citizenship/logistic questions. Forwarded resume to the hiring manager to set up a phone interview. Phone interview was with someone from India. Very difficult to understand due to accent and the quality of the phone call was scratchy. Was not asked to do a modeling assignment. Asked basic finance questions and previous experiences as well as a situational question.
