Depends on geo, office, and most likely to which specific FS practice it's your strongest.

Like, it could be Finance, risk, corporate banking, payments, wealth management, and the list continues...

Are u coming as an EM, Principal or?

You won't know what casing style it's going to be until you have the interview, but what I would do is sharpen your knowledge on the fundamentals and then also sharpen your conversational skills. The longer the conversation, the more of a chance you be hired.

There's very little chance the interview will be about a random topic where we know it's not OP expertise. It makes no sense to have a telecom case for a risk principal, for example.

Hey OP! Any inputs or your exp. you would like to share??

For those who work/interviewed with Facebook (Meta) did you have another interview after your virtual on-site loop?

Recruiter initially said next step after loop was an offer if selected, now she’s telling me they loved me but want to deep dive into my response to the case study, so one more case interview.

Is this strange?
