I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Piper Sandler
Interview
Summer networking event, followed by a phone screen and then an in-person Superday interview. Pretty standard investment banking process, other than the summer networking event - they really try to hire based on fit.

Question 1
Why middle-market banking? Why did you apply to this office?
It was a hirevue video recording with about 5 questions in there. After that, they contacted straight for super day. Super day was 4 b2b and each lasted about 30 minutes. Overall difficulty was not too bad - got grilled with some technicals but they were mostly basic.
Great process with the tech team. Mostly behavioral with technical screen. High quality team, first rounds technical later rounds all behavior and fit based. The culture seems and communal flat
