I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Charles Schwab (Austin, TX)
Interview
Applied online, did an online questionnaire, an initial phone screening lasting about 15 minutes, and then an hour long phone interview after which I was asked to take the sifma assessment. I passed the exam which consisted of logic questions and some simple math questions. You are allowed a calculator and scratch paper for the exam. I was then called in to a face to face interview with 2 managers. This lasted about an hour and a half. I was contacted by my recruiter about 2 hours later about completing authorization forms for background and credit check. This has been a long process but waiting to hear back on the checks was the hardest part (three weeks). I received an email today saying they are ready to make an offer.

Question 1
The interview questions were typical Star style questions and not that difficult if you follow the format. I had the hardest time with the logic test because you are not allowed to revisit a question once it is answered.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Charles Schwab (Indianapolis, IN) in Jun 2021
Interview
The interview process consisted of an initial phone screening, a second phone interview, and then a Zoom interview. I completed my entire process within two weeks so it was very streamlined and expectations were clear.

I applied online. I interviewed at Charles Schwab (Westlake, TX) in Apr 2021
Interview
I had three interviews, the last one with the hiring manager of the department I applied to. All three of the interviews were fabulous. Every person I spoke with was very kind. The last one takes about an hour. When selected for an interview with a hiring manager, you will receive an email with a lot of information about the position including videos. Watch them, read everything you receive. Look over the job description and prepare questions if you have any. If you're prepared, you will be ok.
