Cowen tests on manipulating industry data sets in addition to normal financial modeling

Looking for referral at Cowen and others. Please let me know if you would like to speak with me. Best

Hey, don't know about the others, but SVB was kind of a frustrating experience. It didn't take long at all, but the process included a very intense assignment and then I got NO FEEDBACK even though I asked and was straight up rejected. I thought that the interview went really well, and I am good at my job and have no idea why the assignment would have tanked it that much. That's just me though.

Can you share what kind of assignment? Thanks for your feedback. Recruiter told me something about financial model.

I recently had an interview with HCL and cleared 2 rounds of technical interview. I waited for a week for HR call but no such call was received. I then contacted the POC who scheduled the interview (he is an HCL employee) and he said that I have been shortlisted and will receive HR call shortly. This was 1 week ago and I have still not received any call. Has anyone else faced the same issue? And if yes, should I even expect a call fro HR?
