Interview
First Round: 1 Associate 1 Engagement Manager.
One of my interviewers DID NOT want to be there that day. I could feel his annoyance through the Zoom screen. However, the other interviewer was super friendly and easy to talk to. They started with the PEI and moved on to the casing portion. Math was comparatively more complicated than others I have done.
