Recruiter screen was laid back then two 45 min coding rounds same day, first was a sliding window problem that I'd done a variation of before so it went smoothly. second was graph BFS which took me longer but I got it working, I made sure to talk through my approach the whole time which the interviewers seemed to really appreciate

Was surprised how quick the whole process was, applied on LinkedIn and they got back to me 2 days after for an interview. One thing I found weird was there were 4 interviewers kinda seemed like overkill and amde me more nervous for no reason lol but simple 'walk me through your resume' then gave me times to ask questions

The 160 question personality test they make you do before anything else even happens is wild, then had an HR chat and an interview with a floor manager and credit manager together. Questions about emerging trends in banking and whether I see compliance as a long term career, felt like they were testing if I'd stick around
