I applied through other source. I interviewed at Value Research
Interview
There was a screening test followed by an Excel test which included basic finance formulas and a short case study. Though it was communicated that the test will have data related to mutual funds, that wasn't the case. The data set was more related from a industry analysis point of view.

Interview
After clearing the resume screening round I received an email marketing assignment where I had to write a promotional email talking about Value Research or any of its products. After clearing that round I got another assignment with three writing tasks - blog, social media post, and ad copy.
It was quite a comprehensive assignment and required a lot of work.
After submitting the second assignment, I stopped receiving any responses from the HR team. Even upon asking for feedback, I didn't receive any response.
In my opinion, if you're asking candidates to do all that work across multiple assignment stages and expecting great quality outputs as well, the least you can do is keep them informed about the process.
I asked for three details during this process: work setup (wfh/hybrid/in-office), working days, and budget for role. I received straight answers for the work setup and working days, for the budget, I was told "it depends on my experience and past compensation" which was like dodging the question.

Interview
The selection process consisted of three phases: an initial assessment, a team-specific task, and an interview. The initial assessment and task were quite straightforward and manageable, especially with the ample time provided for completion. The interview felt more like a conversation than a formal interview. The senior management was very understanding of my personal limitations and tried to accommodate them accordingly.
