After submitting the online application, a one-sided digital interview was requested by mail to be completed in a few days.
Two months later, I received an email notifying that there were two rounds of interviews ahead in case mastercard progresses with my application. After about a week, I was invited to my first interview.
The first interview is an online interview with two managing consultants. This interview was a business case interview and I was also asked a few situational questions. The interviewers were very friendly. It was an overall smooth, enjoyable interview.
The second interview was an HR interview conducted by high-level executives who were also friendly. Questions asked were not extremely hard yet challenging.
Definitely recommend preparing for both interviews using the resources provided and practicing mock interviews.

An online asynchronous video interview, with a mix of Korean and English behavioural and mini-case questions. Afterwards, an online synchronous interview asking clarifying questions about your resume, and case-style questions (not a formal case-interview).
I interviewed at Mastercard (Lisbon, Lisbon District)

I did a video interview at the end of October and I was supposed to receive an answer within 10 days. I received the rejection in February, despite all the attempts in texting the recruiter.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Mastercard
