I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Capital Group (Los Angeles, CA) in Jan 2012
Interview
I went in and was greeted by a person from human resources. I then met with an investment analyst. He basically wanted to get a sense of how I think about investments. What kind of analysis do I do, both quantitative and qualitative. How do I think about upside and downside? How would I size a position in a portfolio?
Behavioral interview followed by a technical interview, which included a stock pitch. Each interview took about 30-60 min. The technical interview had several people sitting in, while the behavioral one was with an HR person only.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Capital Group (New York, NY) in Jan 2019
Interview
Fun interactive conversations about investing, companies and life. They seem to care about what makes you think differently and your intellectual honesty and humility. This makes the process less stressful than otherwise.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me something about yourself that's not on your resume.
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Capital Group (London, England) in Nov 2015
Interview
Interviewed for a full time position. Met 2 people: one senior, one analyst who asked soft interview questions in a relaxed atmosphere.
Spoke about a stock, about the prospects, my goals, why capital group, etc.
A few weeks later I got a call to say I didn't go through the last round and mentioning they would encourage me to apply for the internship program.
