I interviewed at Bank of America (London, England)
Interview
Several rounds of tech interview (asking for technical details of programming languages) and brain teasers. The interview questions are apparently created by individual interviewers and not standardized in the company. Some of the interviewers are well prepared while others make serious numerical mistakes when asking questions.

Question 1
They asked me to explain my projects in detail - more you highlight the technical depth, higher they value
Technical questions and a take home project. Tech questions are related to statistics and math, not very hard but time-series specifically. Also, there are questions related to probability calculation. The vibe is casual and the interviewers are very nice.

Scheduled Superday with 2x 40 minute interviews back-to-back with different BofA employees (up to at least VP, Director+). Almost entirely behavioral, with just a few questions on languages and data structures you have worked with. Mostly about data communication. Super friendly and reasonable.
