Hi there!
Always reach out to the recruiter to ask this. This way you can get the information straight from the source, right from the office that you'll be interviewing with and have the certainty that it's right.
If my memory serves me right, they should have candidate led interviews. But better to validate directly with them.
Best,
Cristian

Double-check with the recruiter! always make sure based on their materials and communications with you an the unviersity.
It *should* be candidate-led, but it's always good to be sure.
