I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at StoneX (New York, NY) in Mar 2019
Interview
30 minute phone interview with hiring manager. Followed up once more over the phone. I was then hired on. As an intern the interview processes is not extensive. You either work well for the team based in the interview or won't.
The interview process involved standard competency and motivation-based questions. I was asked why I was interested in the role, what motivated me to apply to StoneX specifically, and to discuss my background, skills, and how they align with the position.
