I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Fisher Investments (Camas, WA) in Apr 2016
Interview
Started with a recruited finding my resume on indeed.com. They emailed me and set up a preliminary phone interview. After that was over, she set up a time and a date with a second phone interview with a recruiter that lasted about 45 minutes. After that, he went over things and emailed me back within 24 hours setting up a time to come to their headquarters to interview with two different hiring managers in one day. Each interview lasted about 45 mins.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why business?
Besides a few questions about the company, the interview questions are very behavior based. They are looking for a culture fit with their company.
first round: Phone Call with a recruiter. He asked basic questions like tell me about yourself, why do you want to work at Fisher Investments and etc. The process was smooth and clear.
Applied, within 24 hours got an offer to interview over the phone. Phone interview was positive and was told I’d be recommended for a video interview. 3 days later, got a boilerplate rejection email. The kind that says, “after careful consideration” you know the one. The one that feigns consideration as corporate insulation from the applicants. If you want to still apply for a company that says, verbatim per the email,
“We understand you may want additional information about our decision. However, as a company policy, we do not provide feedback”, then you are entitled to your own pain and suffering.
Phone Interview, behaviour questions and availability. Asked about previous work experiences. Spoke for about 30 mins. Recruiter was new. The conversation was not flowing. Hence I was hesitant with my answers. But it was not very difficult.
