Pretty chill, a few rounds of coding/stats/ML/etc. Not too difficult, process was very drawn out (2-3 months). Would've appreciated quicker process but summers are slow. Interviewers were very nice and wa sa very different interview type then the typical quant questions.
The interview process was extensive, taking over three weeks. There were four to five rounds, and each round was with a different team, as they do team matching. Be ready to be heavily tested on DSA and ML fundamentals
