2 back to back case for the first round. Depending on the time you finish the case and you may be asked BQ, but i didn't. I think the case is more creative than the traditional one in terms of structure and questions
Two standard case interviews and one behavioral. Conducted with partners. Interviewers were professional and the cases were on the challenging side. Felt that I was able to complete with a little time to spare.
