      Intern-Summer Honors College Program Interview

      13 Jun 2014
      Anonymous employee
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at SEC in Oct 2013

      Interview

      This was in the Division of Economic and Risk Analysis. The interview was on the phone. The person who interviews you will most likely be your immediate supervisor (hence why that person is calling). Most people in their position have PhD's in Finance. Very few have their PhD in economics and even fewer dont have PhD. The advantage of this is that your interviewer will have published some work. Make sure you go and read their work and find a way to incorporate it into the interview questions. Other than that, the questions were pretty straight forward. They wanted to know what your research interests were, what quantitative experience you had and applied knowledge you have of the field.

      Question 1

      Explain your experience performing research and applying economic theories.

      Application

      I interviewed at SEC

      Interview

      Interview process was relatively laid back. Consisted of a half hour phone interview. Very friendly group of people who really just wanted to hear about what I could bring to the office. I found out within 24 hours that I had been offered the position. Very happy that I applied here.

      Question 1

      Questions related to current events: what are the costs of the Ukraine/Russia crisis to the United States.
