I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at CRISIL (Wrocław) in Mar 2017
Interview
At first stage, I was contacted by staff from Wroclaw office for an interview in regards of the role I applied for (equity research). The interview was by phone and lasted more than 1 hour. A few days after that, a HR represensative called me to say I passed the interview and to offer me the possibility of a Quant role. Even though I told her I wasn´t interested AT ALL in a quant role, she scheduled an interview with a manager from London for the Quant research role.
Again, during this interview, I told the interviewer I was interested exclusively in the ER job. They told me they were going to proceed for the quant role. I got tired of the company fooling around with me and I told them to withdraw my application.
