      Consultant Interview

      23 May 2010
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      The process took 2 days. I interviewed at FactSet (New York, NY) in May 2010

      Interview

      Applied through my school's job posting board and contacted about a week later asking to schedule a phone interview. The phone interview was basic HR questions (Why you chose your school, your majors, etc.) as well as just a run through of your resume. Asked a few follow up questions, but nothing too difficult. At the end of the phone interview the HR rep said she would like to have me come down to the office to interview. Two weeks later I went to the office. There were four other candidates. First taken through an introduction to the Factset platform, then taken to five 40 minute interviews with managers (2 from Investment Management, 2 from Brokers/Banks) and the HR person. All basically the same questions seemingly trying to gauge your fit with the company. All relatively laid back, I only ran into one manager who seemed to take the whole thing more seriously than the rest. After the interviews we went out to a really nice lunch with two consultants who seemed happier to just be out to a nice lunch than actually answering our questions. All in all a pretty good, laid back experience. They pushed the people aspect of the firm to an almost nauseating level, so if you focus on that in your answers you should make a good impression on them.

      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

      24 Aug 2023
      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.
