      Economist Interview

      14 Jul 2023
      Anonymous employee
      Boston, MA
      Accepted offer
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at IRS in Jun 2012

      Interview

      Very Difficult - 2 hours - tons of questions - very 482 specific - valuation driving - financial sector experience is a benefit. It was a 2hr interview - the people were very nice. You have no idea if you are answering correctly, b/c they do not push back much on your responses. These are very smart people that expect you to say the right thing the first time. No back peddling possible.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Do you know how valuation plays a role in 482?

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at IRS (Boston, MA) in May 2023

      Interview

      Technical but one and done. Long process: typical of government. Panel interview. Many steps to the process. Took about 2 months from applying to getting an offer. Once there's an offer, there's little time to respond.
