The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Fisher Investments in Sep 2009
Interview
The interview seemed to be a review of my resume and life aspirations. The people there seemed to be on the young side, but all very motivated/ serious. Despite their lack of clear credentials, they were very critical of my degree from a top university, and huge array of extracurricular activities.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Are your parents disappointed with your career aspirations.
Applied, within 24 hours got an offer to interview over the phone. Phone interview was positive and was told I’d be recommended for a video interview. 3 days later, got a boilerplate rejection email. The kind that says, “after careful consideration” you know the one. The one that feigns consideration as corporate insulation from the applicants. If you want to still apply for a company that says, verbatim per the email,
“We understand you may want additional information about our decision. However, as a company policy, we do not provide feedback”, then you are entitled to your own pain and suffering.
Phone Interview, behaviour questions and availability. Asked about previous work experiences. Spoke for about 30 mins. Recruiter was new. The conversation was not flowing. Hence I was hesitant with my answers. But it was not very difficult.
Good experience with their recruiters. They are very nice and professional, and HR shares lots of helpful information and positive insights. They also have a very systematic, clear, and well-organized interview schedule.
