It was a 30-minute first round interview. There were two interviewers. And they took turns to ask questions. Most of the questions covered were typical behavioral questions. Overall, it was a nice interview experience. Nice people, and answer your questions genuinely.
The interview process was relatively informal, with a fair balance of personal questions as well as more technical questions about interpreting graphs and coming up with your own ideas. It was around a 30 minute call with 2 representatives.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Cornerstone Research in Oct 2022
