OP, typically the 2nd round is more of a fit thing where you get to ask more specific questions about the position and company. |

Re: 2nd round Finance Interview...what to expect?
First round was 5-6 behavioral questions with a member of the finance department.
Second round is 4 half hour interviews with various finance people. My impression is that the second round is more of a "get to know you" sort of thing. I could be wrong tho. I'm gonna ask a few finance profs what I should expect. |
