I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Capital Group (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
I had one phone call with a Hiring Manager, followed by an in-person interview with another Hiring Manager. This in-person interview took one hour and there were a lot of "what would you do if..." type of questions. This Hiring Manager was very professional. I was then asked to interview with two Managing Directors (MDs) for 1 1/2 hours. Both of them were very professional and the interview went very well. I was invited to come back and meet several assistants as the final step on this interview process. We were two finalists and none of us got an offer because apparently there was not enough chemistry with the assistants. I think the interview process is flawed. Myself and the other candidate as well as the MDs wasted a lot of time. If having the right chemistry with the assistants is so important to Capital Group, the potential candidates should first interview with the assistants and then with the MDs. The whole process took a month.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Capital Group (Los Angeles, CA) in Jul 2024
Interview
Easy interview. I normally set and forget applications so I prefer companies not reaching out unless we're moving forward. However, they did say they would reach out, didn't, and when I followed up, they ghosted me, which I think is indicative of their own standard of organization. Never a great reflection on a company when they can't hold themselves to the same standard they expect of you, especially in an admin role. For those who do like being notified: They're the type to ghost, and worse, tell you they'll reach out but ghost.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Capital Group (Nashville, TN) in Apr 2021
Interview
It was weird. They typed the whole time via Zoom. I never spoke with a human. It was a 30 min interview then I was offered the position without them telling me what I interviewed for.
