Wasn't too bad, mostly behavioural and standard interview questions for the hirevue. They gave loads of time to prepare which is a massive plus in my eyes. Definitely caters to all majors well.
Hirevue, asked 4 questions with unlimited prep time, all behavioral even for a somewhat technical role (Quant Analysis & Investment Risk). The unlimited preparation time was super helpful. Would recommend touching up on all behavioral questions.
