I applied online. I interviewed at Bank of America
Interview
Coding questions of easy-level leet code and mostly behavioral questions. you dont have to get the coding questions completely right - as long as you explain your thoughts outloud in the video interview, those answers will be accepted
I interviewed at Bank of America (London, England)
Interview
Phone call. Short explanation of team, then the main part of puzzle solving, including math / probability brain teasers and Python concepts. Also some questions related to skills mentioned on CV. Then candidate can ask questions.
it was easy asked about basic sql database questions and asked about my project i explained about my project but asked me if iam willing to relocate i said no which was wrong it was my first interview so i was really out of myself when i said that
