      Application

      I interviewed at Vanguard

      Interview

      STAR question based interviews, interviewers do not conversate, only ask questions and write down your response and then ask you another STAR question. This isnt the way I like to interview but for some it ok.

      They asked me to demonstrate a time I had to show empathy.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through college or university. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Vanguard (Malvern, PA) in Oct 2018

      Interview

      The interview was relaxed and positive. There was a phone screening then a one on one in person interview in Malvern. I was told I did well the day after the interview then waited for a month to hear that they were no longer adding people onto the position.
