Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to work with a team and were frustrated. How did you deal with it?
great experience all round, stressful at times but fine if you apply yourself and work hard. I would recommend to others and think its a great growth market too. The interview process was intense but helps if you know people
I went through three rounds of interviews, and the overall process was very positive. The recruiter was extremely nice, supportive, and communicative throughout, which made the experience feel smooth and comfortable. I also had really good conversations with the team, and those interactions gave me a strong impression of the firm’s culture and people.
I ended up joining the firm afterward, and it turned out to be a great experience. I learned a lot, worked with strong colleagues, and genuinely enjoyed my time there. Based on my experience, I would highly recommend the firm to others.
Two rounds of interviews. The first was with CFO and the second was with the CFO and the GM. It was mostly easy conversational questions about job history, experience, etc.
