Applied online. Phone interview with direct supervisor. Produce work samples. Phone calls with direct supervisor. Flyout. In person interview with people in LA; people in NYC conferenced in. Negatives: they called me multiple times while I was at work - these calls weren't scheduled. They couldn't schedule my office visit in advance. They ended up reaching out last minute (2 days prior) and told me to come to LA. After the morning round of interviews, I was told that I needed to stay an extra day (this was problematic in that I needed to be back at work the next day). They required me to book my own flights and hotels. Accounting made me fill out a W-9 to get reimbursed (W-9's are for independent contractor income). The process took several months. Despite having interviewed and worked for multiple large financial institutions, I found the process and line of questioning very strange. They started negotiating salary during the very first phone call. It was brought up at multiple points along the process. Very limited transparency in the salary discussions in terms of how people have done historically (base and bonus - a multiple of the base) and how the bonus is derived. Positives: Potential for a high bonus (despite not knowing how it's calculated) Here's an interesting fact which I learned during the interview: Guggenheim policy is that employees don't travel during business hours.
