The first interview was with the HR in which they wanted to discuss my technical and soft skills by asking me questions about the years at the university and the projects developed. The technical interview was pretty straightforward, some snippet of code to understand and provide a solution of the output calculated.

Applied online, heard back in about two weeks. Process was three rounds: HR phone screen, a technical/case interview, then a panel with two managers.
Overall a positive experience. Interviewers were professional and well prepared. First call was straightforward — motivation, why BNP, why this team. Second round had a market/risk case and some CV deep-dives; they push on details so know your numbers. Final panel was more behavioral, with a few curveballs on how you handle pressure.
Pace was a bit slow between stages and communication could've been quicker, but recruiter was responsive when chased.
