I applied online. I interviewed at Nuveen (Charlotte, NC)
Interview
I applied and interviewed in 2020 in Charlotte, NC. Overall, a very bad time. Initially, it started well with them and they were interested after going through multiple rounds. I will say though that the interviewer was late and appeared bored and rushed during the interview (how nice is that...) Then absolutely no response and was ghosted. Only eventually found out that I officially did not get it by going on the career site and seeing the position was not available anymore. Definitely avoid this company.
I spoke to HR on the phone first. Then a Zook call with the MD. Then a super day with 6 team members. Everyone was fairly relaxed, although I had to follow up to find out I wasn’t going further.

Three rounds of interviews with increasingly senior staff ranging from associate to managing director. Most questions focused on culture fit while also assuring necessary qualifications met. Excel modeling test and some technical questions asked.
