Interview
In-Person Interview, Behavioral Questions, Resume Review, straight-forward interview, easy to talk to, medium sized office, very positive interview experience, very relaxed interview environment, was supposed to meet with one other Managing Director
The interview was very behavioral, my interviewer was extremely nice and led most of the conversation. Do some research on the firm before, they love hearing about the CEO and his ability to innovate, he is one of the longest standing CEOs on the street.
