      Senior Financial Analyst Interview

      Mar 21, 2016
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Discover

      Interview

      Had a phone interview with a hiring manager. From the get go, he was in a hurry to finish the interview, and rushed through his questions. He asked me about my background and experiences, and I asked him basic questions about the position and his line of business. In fairness, he did a decent job answering business related questions, but unprovoked, almost berated me saying he wanted to set expectations for the job responsibilities, assuming I wanted something else. He ended the interview saying I should hear back from the recruiter. I got a drab automated e-mail a week later from the HR recruiter, indicating I was passed on for other candidates.
