I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Vanguard in Feb 2016
Interview
Applied on Vanguard's website. After two weeks I was contacted by an recruiter through email and was asked to scheduled a phone interview. Spoke with a recruiter and went through basic behavioral interview questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Walk me through your resume. Why did you choose your current college?
Simple process. Went through Drexel with the co-op program. One phone call and then one in person interview with direct manager and then a week later received the offer. Pretty straight forward. Great company and good people.
The process spanned 3 rounds. First was resume and technical questions. Second was coding DSA and regressions. Third was research questions. Overall people were very nice, the process went smooth and fairly quickly.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Vanguard
Interview
Very chill, just behavior questions. Asked me about my communication style, what courses/knowledge of data science/machine learning that I had. Why I wanted to work in finance. It was very enjoyable/conversational.
