Interview
4-hour super day process for a 1st year analyst role on one of their portfolio construction teams. There were 3 45-minute calls and all 3 went very well. Everyone was very supportive throughout the process and genuinely happy to talk to you. They engaged with you a lot, too!

Question 1
Typical behavioral questions. Describe a time you disagreed with someone, how do you work in a team setting, etc.
Too long, 5 rounds not including a recruiter screen and one panel interview with 2 people. Normal interviews but ridiculous process and the pay is not great for a trillion dollar company.
One online interview and three rounds of hirevue until an assessment centre in the offices and coding exam if applying to engineer roles in London. The interview was quite easy and straightforward; really happy with the results
