Interview
Applied online and received an email from a coordinator. We've set up a schedule for a phone call. It was a typical basic interview on the phone. Relatively easy.
They presented me with an interesting problem that related to the problems the firm attempts to solve. It was really challenging but also fun to tackle; I would say the hardest part of the challenge was that I ran out of time.
