I applied through college or university. I interviewed at FactSet
Interview
Met with FactSet employees at college career fair, who were actually consultants themselves. These two were very nice, seemed interested in me, and were enthusiastic about their company. The following week had a 1:1 interview with a recruiter, but the person came off as uninterested in myself and my experiences. I prepared a good amount of questions that I had gotten compliments on in other interviews, but the recruiter was put off by them, almost annoyed.

Straightforward. You begin with a telephone interview, followed by a group interview with you work on a group project and share a talent/skill you possess. If successful, you will then go through several rounds of interview with hiring manager and other senior stakeholders.

Interview
There was an initial virtual interview with HR and then an interview the the manager from the US. HR lady was friendly and was fast to respond to emails. The manager didn’t seem experienced in interviewing, he said so himself and went for someone that didn’t require onboarding training. He said he doesn’t expect knowledge on equity when being quizzed on it but yet the reason for not getting the role was lack of knowledge on it. Was not pleased with this misleading behaviour. The decision felt rushed as they only gave a reply once I emailed so felt like they already had the candidate chosen.
