My interview journey had a familiar two-round shape. First was an HR conversation that stayed mostly on behavior and communication, where the emphasis was clearly on how I came across and how I’d show up professionally. Once that went well, I was pulled into a more direct interview with senior leaders.
That second conversation had the finance and planning side in it—financial planning topics and basics like debt and equity—while still weaving in behavioral questions. I found that since the role touches client work, they pushed beyond surface-level answers and wanted specifics from my past. The overall difficulty felt pretty middle-of-the-road, and the most noticeable thing was that the questions became more concrete once they knew I had relevant experience.

My experience started with a recruiter conversation, then moved into a longer second stage that felt more like a structured interview loop. The first call was about 20 minutes, and then I got a second round consisting of four consecutive interviews, each about 30 minutes, with different people. The questions rotated across what I’d done before, how I thought about the position, and behavioral topics centered on communication and working with others. One of the four also leaned technical—focused on analyst programming and what languages or tools I was familiar with.
What surprised me wasn’t the format—it was how much the process later felt like it was being driven by internal need rather than a smooth candidate experience. I also had a separate round of issues around professionalism and coordination, including moments that made me feel the organization wasn’t handling the process with care.
