Some online tests, Video Interview, and a face to face interview. Interviewers were generally nice and questions asked were more behavioural than technical. Try to read up more about interesting deals and know why you want to work there.
Submitted CV, Cover Letter, online questionnaire. Then there was the online interview where you see a question on the screen and have to answer after 30 seconds thinking time, mostly to do with fit, like why Lazard, why investment banking, etc. Then I was invited to their offices for the final round, but I was out of the country so they let me do a video interview instead
