Question 1
why are you interested in xx industry specifically?
Team-based ACT interview; The call was quite short (20 minutes) with no case interview - asked deeply about my past experiences and how I would approach certain research tasks. I would recommend submitting resumes ASAP (as soon as the job posting is uploaded) for team-based ACT roles.

Debated about a startup case on whether or not a PE firm should acquire the startup and what the startup can do to become more attractive to investors.
Few case questions and guestimation questions if needed. After that there will be rounds of phone interviews on research methods and your working style. The case questions were pretty straight forward and for research methods you should have your own style of research method.
