Interview
I met with a recruiter at my University's career fair. Applied on FactSet's website and attended the on campus info session about a month later. After reaching out to multiple people via e-mail and text, the national recruiter staffed to my school eventually responded to set up a phone interview. The interview lasted about 20-30 minutes. I prepared by reviewing questions posted on here, however I made the mistake of rushing into my answers rather than collecting my thoughts and simply conversing with the interviewer. Really disappointed to have allowed positive energy and excitement to ultimately backfire on me and cause me to sound nervous. I also hate not being able to convey nonverbal cues.

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.
