HR call standard 30 minutes. Tell me about yourself, why this role, etc. Next round in person with a TA. Fairly open-ended discussion, allowing you to ask a lot of questions. Also, a 10-question Excel exam, and two questionare like packets.

Simple process. Had a 20-30 minute screening call with HR, was asked basic questions about my interest in the commodities trading space and willingness to work on-site 5 days a week. After that, I was invited for a 3.5-hour in-person interview. None of my interviewers seemed prepared with any questions, nor did they try to keep the conversation flowing. Seemed like each of them just wanted to get it over with. I was told that I would be updated and could be invited to a final interview with the CFO, who is head of the Stamford office. Overall interview experience was normal and not all that challenging. A few technical questions, but nothing excessively complex. The real issue was with communication after the second round. I spent nearly 4 hours at their offices between interviews and an Excel assessment and was then ghosted. I reached out to HR two weeks later, asking for an update and never received a response. The position was a stretch given my experience (an interviewer told me as much), so I understand them goign with another candidate, but I do expect at least an email updating me.
