      Consultant Interview

      13 Jan 2012
      Anonymous employee
      San Mateo, CA
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at FactSet (San Mateo, CA) in Sept 2011

      Interview

      FactSet Consulting Managers know what they want and go after it fast. After speaking with them at the career fair at my school and leaving my resume, a recruiter called a few days later and asked me to come in for an all-day interview the next day. There were four of us interviewing at the same time. We were called in one at a time by 4 different managers and interviewed 1:1 with them for about 20 minutes each. Like any interview, there were expected questions such as "Why FactSet" and unexpected questions such as "Tell me something you wouldn't want me to know about you." They seemed to look for whether or not they want to work with the interviewee and whether or not s/he has quick problem solving abilities and excellent communication skills. My interview process took 1 day; they called me and offered me a position that following evening. I was thrilled by the news and accepted the offer about 1 week later. I decided to work there because I am attracted to the dynamic of the culture and working environment, the young people, and ultimately, what FactSet does as a company.

      Interview

      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.

      Consultant Interview

      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at FactSet (London, England)

      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.
