I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at PitchBook (Seattle, WA) in Apr 2013
Interview
My experience with the PitchBook interview process was nothing short of ideal.
I spent 4 hours meeting with a variety of associates: HR, managers, individuals I'd be training with, and associates currently in the role. I found the latter to be most helpful, as they were candid in giving me a keen sense of day-to-day. The interview ended with a personality/ logic test. All conversations were comfortable and positive. Genuinely nice people.
The following week, they invited me back for interviews with the CEO and VP of Sales. Both conversations felt natural and very few behavioral questions were asked.
The HR department was incredibly responsive throughout the 2 weeks. I felt comfortable asking questions.
Overall, I'd describe my interviews as professional, friendly, and insightful. The timely responses from HR were especially convenient.

Interview
Applied and got contact by the recruiter to set up a phone interview. Did an initial phone screen with a recruiter and then I did another phone interview with the manager of the team. After that I went to the office and interviewed again with another individual. Basically just meeting the team of people to make sure it was a good fit for everyone.
