I applied through college or university. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at Fisher Investments (New York, NY)
Interview
Meet Fisher at a College Fair and went to their info session later that night. Had an on-campus interview with them a few days later. Had a phone interview a few weeks after that and then a video interview with the same person the following week. After another month I was flown out to their Washington office to have three more interviews for various positions.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
Why are you interested in Business/Investment field?
first round: Phone Call with a recruiter. He asked basic questions like tell me about yourself, why do you want to work at Fisher Investments and etc. The process was smooth and clear.
Applied, within 24 hours got an offer to interview over the phone. Phone interview was positive and was told I’d be recommended for a video interview. 3 days later, got a boilerplate rejection email. The kind that says, “after careful consideration” you know the one. The one that feigns consideration as corporate insulation from the applicants. If you want to still apply for a company that says, verbatim per the email,
“We understand you may want additional information about our decision. However, as a company policy, we do not provide feedback”, then you are entitled to your own pain and suffering.
Phone Interview, behaviour questions and availability. Asked about previous work experiences. Spoke for about 30 mins. Recruiter was new. The conversation was not flowing. Hence I was hesitant with my answers. But it was not very difficult.
