Applied through OCI. Initial screener with one partner, then a callback with 4 thirty min interviews in a row—2 partners and 2 associates. Very positive experience with wonderful folks. All took place on zoom due to covid.

Entretien
Really drawn out- straight to callback but had to wait a while to get the interview scheduled. Had the interview and it has been a month since then with no further information. This is the case with many people. I think in 2025-26 they are unsure on how to approach the hiring cycle.

Entretien
Four interviewers, very conversational and causal. Have a Why Ropes? ready. Also have questions for the interviewers, I found that they spoke for about 75% of the time. Overall, very relaxed experience.

Entretien
Really conversational and focused on the resume. Some behavior questions, but really easy to answer. The interviewer is the partner, and she is super nice. 20-min OCI interview, really normal and general.
