Application
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Houlihan Lokey (Los Angeles, CA) in Apr 2020

Two first round interviews then a super day. All virtual because of the coronavirus. I did not make it to the super day unfortunately. The first phone interview was pretty chill. The second one was all about bonds.
