I applied through university. I interviewed at Spark Investment Management (Cambridge, MA)

On-campus interview, 30-minute conversation. I assume there were second round interviews that would have taken place on-site, but nobody I know from school got a second round interview. Lindsay is the interviewer and was very nice (Chicago Blackhawks fan, for reference).
