I applied online. I interviewed at Vanguard (Charlotte, NC) in Aug 2025
Interview
The process was smooth and easy. I applied on 8/14 and received an automated text message asking me to pick a time for a phone interview on 8/15. Phone interview was 8/20 where I spoke with a recruiter and answered about 6 STAR method/ situational/ behavioral questions. By the end of that call I was informed that the recruiter wanted to move me forward to a virtual interview with a hiring manager. I scheduled my virtual interview through an automated system for 8/26. I was asked about 4 situational questions using the star method. Recruiter contacted me 8/29 with the offer.
