First vs. second round interviews

Hey y'all :)

What’s the difference between first and second round interviews? Does anyone have experience explaining how long each round typically lasts and what kinds of questions are asked? Thank you!

From what I can tell, first round interviews are used to screen candidates and they focus on basic fit and tech knowledge.

Second round interviews go more into detail and usually involve case studies, detailed tech questions and behavioral assessments to evaluate problem-solving and cultural fit.

Hey! ?

Typically, first-round interviews are shorter (30–45 min) and focus on basic technical skills, fit questions, and your resume. They’re often conducted by analysts or associates.

Second-round interviews (or Superdays) are longer and more in-depth, with multiple back-to-back interviews (up to a few hours!). Expect more complex technical questions, case studies, and senior-level interviewers (VPs, MDs).

Good luck with your prep!
