Did a couple rounds over the phone which were not technical at all but got rejected and they wouldn't explain why. I had previous banking experience at a major global bank. Not transparent at all.

Great first round over the phone with analyst and then two second round interviews with associates. Definitely wanted to see how you fit with the company and the people were generally overall extremely chill and were great to talk to. Loved my time during the interview
