I interviewed at Fidelity Investments (Boston, MA)
Interview
The interview was 30 minutes long. It was a mix of HR question and technical question. It was mostly a Resume walk through with a few questions on pricing. The interviewer was very accommodating. Spoke about the job description and how my skills would align with the role.
I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Fidelity Investments (Boston, MA) in Apr 2021
Interview
It was a very BAD experience. First the interviewer threw a who knows what question asking about my interests, which was not funny and disgusting. The whole process is randomly thrower and he doesn’t even seem focused. Arrogant from the start to the end and couldn’t even wait to close the video was all his impression. Lastly he threw two financial term question that were more suited for fresh grads instead of senior level employees.
All I can say is stay away from this company because you can tell the horrible working environment based on the arrogance originating from nowhere
