I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments (Londres, Inglaterra) in Jan 2024
Interview
Different people turned up to the interview than had been planned, they started late in an already very short time slot, had mildly aggressive / arrogant / unpleasant questioning lines designed to put you off your stride. It was almost as if they didn't want to be there, and they were doing me favour - generally I want to be sold a job, not be put off - hope for their sake it was just a bad day, as they won't find good people like this.

Interview
Easy process, one of the questions was how to Embed quick feedback mechanisms to continually refine dashboard elements for a random product they had. overall pretty easy and chill experience, especially for the new grad process.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments (Londres, Inglaterra) in Aug 2021
Interview
My first interview was with HR and a senior individual. My second interview was with the hiring manager and a team member. The interview consisted of me giving a presentation and I had to submit PowerPoint slides 24 hours beforehand. Quite long winded. The presentation topic wasn’t given until the last minute. Only had a couple of days to prepare. It took a lot of time to get feedback. Then eventually they said it wasn’t what they were looking for as they wanted a playbook rather than a presentation.
