I applied online. I interviewed at Live Oak Bank (Wilmington, NC) in Mar 2026
Interview
Typical phone screen with a very pleasant recruiter. A follow-up interview was scheduled a few days later with the hiring manager. Received a personalized rejection email after the decision was made.
The interview process was efficient and easy. Communication from live oak was always seamless, and they made sure to not waste any time on either side. Questions were more to make sure the candidate would be a good fit for the culture at live oak and not just focused on technical abilities.
