I applied online. I interviewed at FactSet (London, England)
Interview
Applied online and received an offer for an interview within 2 weeks.
On the interview day, I was first interviewed 1-1 which consisted of many competency based questions. Included questions about my previous roles, degree, etc etc, the pretty standard stuff and nothing too challenging. Thereafter I sat a maths exam on a computer along with the other candidates. The exam tested excel and common maths problems.
