First round recruiter screen, second round was a two part behavioral interview evaluating fit, motivation, strengths, etc. Third round was "Business Insights" and was described by the recruiter as a deeper conversation around "Why Equilend/the work we do? Why Fintech?" etc... but that wasn't really the case. I jump into that call and right off the bat, without even asking for an intro or anything at all about myself, the interviewer throws a market sizing question at me. Ok, no problem, I've done those before. However, the entire rest of the interview consisted of being asked some of the most niche and specific technical questions I'd ever received. After going over a bunch of Excel scenarios, I was at one point asked to grade my SQL skills, to which I responded 1.5/5 – I'd taken a class in SQL before but it had been quite some time. The interviewer then proceeds to ask me hyper specific syntax questions on SQL for 20 minutes. The questions throughout the interview were all over the place and it didn't seem like anything had been prepared beforehand. At one point, I was even asked to draw out a process flow diagram for a logical problem (with the exact correct shapes, i.e. rectangle, circle, diamond, etc). At the end of the interview I was being grilled on my knowledge of capital markets, the trade lifecycle, the step-by-step process of short selling, and more. The interview was supposed to run 30 minutes and instead took a full hour (I cut off the interviewer at around the 40 minute mark to question this, but they kept going). Throughout the entire thing the interviewer seemed pretty rude and honestly like he was trying to make me fail. Honestly, the worst part is that I had prepared for an entirely different type of interview... if I had known it was going to be grueling, specific technical questions I would've never been caught so off guard. Overall, a very disappointing and frustrating end to the interview process that left a bitter taste in my mouth, which was especially unfortunate because everyone else I had spoke to throughout the process was awesome.
