I applied through university. I interviewed at Fisher Investments (San Mateo, CA) in Feb 2018
Interview
Senior year of college was reached out by a recruiter on linked in. Went through a phone interview and then was invited to be flown out for an on site interview. It was weird that they were willing to fly me out to their office, yet the interview consisted of me video interviewing with people from their other offices the entire time. After that had another video interview, and then a final phone interview with who would have been my boss. Did not make it after that step.

Question 1
When was a time you had to go above and beyond expectations?
One interview, some technical questions, they interview tons of people and only select 1 person at college campuses. Interview was average difficulty and had some personal questions and some technical questions.
Pretty straight forward interview asking about my experience and how it pertains to this exact role. Asked about why interested in working at Fisher and how experience i am with various platforms. Overall pretty standard
