The interview process started with a phone screening where they asked about my background and technical skills, like financial modeling and data analysis. Then, I had two rounds of virtual interviews. The first focused on problem-solving and market trends, while the second covered behavioral questions, testing how I work in teams and handle challenges.

Question 1
During the interview, they asked a mix of technical and behavioral questions. For technicals, they asked me to walk through a financial model and explain key valuation methods like DCF and comparable company analysis. They also tested my understanding of current market trends. For behavioral questions, they asked about a time I handled a difficult project, how I prioritize tasks, and how I work in a team under pressure.
I applied online. I interviewed at Santander (London, England)
