United StatesPosted May 2019 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I had a shorter path that still included a “show up and talk” day.

My process started with a basic phone call, and then I went to a super day with two back-to-back interviews. The phone conversation didn’t feel like much more than a baseline check, while the super day centered mostly on getting to know me—what I was like and why I felt like a fit—rather than heavy financial technicals.

In that same spirit, I was also asked more about sales background and my ability to match the role’s expectations. The overall vibe was personality-driven, and even when questions brushed against finance, they weren’t the main focus.
