I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments (Jacksonville, FL) in Apr 2011
Interview
After applying online, I was contacted by e-mail to schedule a phone interview. The phone interview was pretty standard. Tell me about yourself. Why do you want to work here. Within 2 weeks of the phone interview, I had an in-person interview at the office with 2 managers. You are in a very small room for the interview so that was a little awkward. The really want to know if you are willing to work overtime and any shift (specifically Saturdays and the evening shift -- 2pm to 1am). The also asked a lot of questions about current market news, such as what is the price of gold, what is the Dow Jones at, how has the market been doing, what is a mutual fund, etc. After the interview, I had to take the Watson-Glaser test. The test doesn't test your knowledge of any particular subject. It is more behavioral based to evaluate how you think.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is a mutual fund? (I didn't know much about finance before going in, so I kind of stumbled over that one)
I applied online. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments
Interview
I applied on line. A few days later, I got a phone call and then had a one-on-one interview. Within two days, I got an email inviting me back for an evening "meet and greet" session, set for the next week, which consisted of many candidates and several interviewers all in a conference room at one time. Everyone could feel the discomfort in the atmosphere. It was awkward, to say the least. During the session, the interviewers assured us someone would get back in touch with each of us by the end of the week (either way) and they did not do so. I happened to know a couple people who were also there as candidates and they have told me they did not hear anything afterward, either. Honestly... I am not impressed by this style of "interviewing" and now I feel the company lacks integrity because they did not do what they said they would do.
