Question 1
Will sometimes ask you a question in regards to particular skills and experience that you might not have experience in. They want to see how confident you are in answering the question and your honesty. Not knowing is not a negative.
Fast and quick as the interview and offer was given on the same day. Overall mostly questions from the resume and just be prepared to walk through them. Abit of technical stuff as well.
They asked very basic questions related to accounting and finance . They asked to solve a bank recon and case study in my second round and final was personal interview
Great process thru and thru. The interviewers were very knowledgable. at first i was nervous but the partners were really personable as well which made it easier. i think that this is also what ultimately made me want to join the firm
