      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Northern Trust in Aug 2021

      Interview

      I applied for the job via linked in and HR contacted me. There was 4 rounds of virtual interview 3 hour long (45 mins each) with no break. Round 1 with the hiring manager, round 2 with a peer which was technical, round 3 was behavioural and round 4 was with a senior manager. All the rounds was pretty simple and no much technical was asked. I did not receive a offer as they said i dont have managerial capabilities which was not even mentioned in the JD and this was meant to be a technical role.
